The #36 Inferno Bone will be coming out by next week. It will be the only #36 this year according to GEC; and it will be a run of about 40 knives.

Greg does a very good job on his blog. I also try and keep a list up to date for those that like to reserve early. It is my Early Reservation Page

I've learned you have to develop ninja speed and stealth to snag a really nice GEC stag knife. Monk and Gunstock are absolute MASTERS. I'm getting better, but those guys are amazing! :mrgreen:

it also helps to pre-purchase them from mike at collectorknives.net.
then, you can pick the one you want before they're made available to the masses.
:wink:

fwiw, While checking out the GEC website, I noticed that they have a 2010 snakewood sunfish for sale in their online store.
They are really getting hard to find and the price will go up soon on all of the snakewoods so I thought I'd offer this heads-up.
According to the store site, only 21 were made.

I expect that is 21 non-serialized on top of the serialized.

I may well be mistaken but I don't think any of the 2010STL sunfish were serialized.

Hmmmm.... did she say that any were serialized?
"56 produced" seems to conflict with the info in their online store.

>>>#362210STL Northfield UN-X-LD Sunfish, Snakewood, Steel Bolsters and Liners, Double Pull, 4 1/4" closed length. 1095 carbon steel. Unserialized - 21 pieces. Released November 19, 2010.
This product was added to our catalog on Thursday 16 December, 2010.<<<

Maybe they had only produced 21 of them at the time the knife was listed for sale on 12/16/10.
Or maybe 21 was the number originally released on 11/19/10.
