Does Great Eastern Cutlery have a website?? I was just wondering if they are giving folks a peak into what's coming down the pike?? It sure would help to know how much money to stash away for future knives.. :mrgreen:

I agree, I definitely like them all. They just keep getting better. These guys (GEC) are going to be something to watch. Outside of a couple of knives that need rework (opening night jitters) everything has been just excellent. They are offering everything I wanted in a pocket knife, like I thought Case and Bulldog should do. Great patterns with some heft, fit and finish are getting MUCH better. Finally a steel in a blade (1095 ::ds:: or 440c ) that is not ss420. ::ds::

No web site as yet ...just relying on the dealer network to get the info out.

I do bug them every day and get quite a bit of stuff that is in the pipeline.

They are almost ready to start the 2007 tang stampings and only the first 250 in each pattern will be numbered. That means several different handles will have consecutive numbers ...very ingenious, if not a little confusing.

The quality is here ...no question !!!

Bill,
Tell them to slow down a little on the 2007's, I'm down to cashing in rolls of change to fund my collection! :shock: :D

Any word on future patterns? These knives all look great, but I'm anxious to see what other patterns they will be producing. I would really like to see what they could to in a stockman...

First you might see the small trapper in The Great Eastern 440C. You might see some fixed blade knives later on too.
