That does sound a bit small...I'd like to see a pic with the blade closed.
I wonder if that's a new frame...I can't tell...... ::hmm::

Right on Earl...a Northfield with long pull on the blade and fancy bolsters would be nice.....and add some stag....... ::tu::

LOL,I hear ya bro.blink twice and you got $300 to $500 worth of knives on order

just in case & trey,I'm kinda in that camp EXCEPT its more about frame size for me, if they made a single blade Northfield version or a GEC SS w/acorn shield,long pull OR swedged,ringed bolster,horn,stag,snakewood,nice bone,etc... I'd be LICK'N MY CHOPS!!!

If they made the same thing with a clip, spear or wharncliffe blade, I'd be saving
my pennies.

Yup, the long pull and end cap/ringed bolsters does click it up a notch or two … and actually, the Ebony easy open with no nail nick and the plain bar shield looks kinda classy.

Thankfully, I have never gotten into the Cotton Sampler / Pruner knives much … and maybe I'll keep it that way for now - my passion for Whittlers has got me on a mac 'n' cheese diet until August already … :roll:

Well Earl that Northfield is a nice looking knife....butt....I think it would look better without the pen blade...JMO

Hey Edge mac and chesse ain't bad...I've been living on rice and beans since last year.... :shock: :wink:

Earl,

What's the closed length of that Schatt? I too am thinking if they'd offer a single blade N'field I'd be mighty tempted. The GEC 3 1/2" frame is just right, IMO.

WBob, agreed,I don't care for the pen blade either,single blade I'd be tempted but my paws are jus too big for a 3 1/2 user,have to be a safe queen,plus there is some real interesting stuff coming down the pipeline from GEC ::nod::

biglmbass the Schatt is 4 1/8 closed
