Going into my 5th year as a aapk member I have been fortunate to obtain all the aapk Limited Edition knives offered, beginning in 2016.
Quantity varies from a low of only 50 produced in 2014, to a maximum of 200 Standard + 1 Prototype issued in 2000.
In 2010, 2013 and 2016 there were two separate knives produced and available.
Does any member have all 14 aapk Limited Edition Knives since first being offered in 2009?

Patiently awaiting the 2020 aapk: GEC #74 Tidioute Cutlery Mustang Brown Burlap Micarta.

I have most of them, but I may not have purchased multiple cover material options in a given year. Most years I just bought one each. I'll get them out if I have some time for a family pic.

I have 13 out of the 14. I only bought one handle variation in 2016. I will dig them out for a picture tomorrow (dark now).

I have all of them. Anxious to get this years.

I have one from each year but not doubles. I think I have them in yearly order starting with 2009 at the top through 2019 at the bottom.

I don't collect GEC knives in general. I joined AAPK in 2018. Last year, I purchased two of the 2019 AAPK knives (last picture) and I recently decided I wanted a 2018 AAPK knife also. So I bought a 2018 AAPK knife. It has the tube, the wrapping paper and the c.o.a. It is in Near Mint condition. I took some pictures and here it is.

Nice score Skip!

We have had some nice club knives at AAPK. The 2018 has become my favorite "penknife" because the blade is much more useful than the average penknife, but it still fits very nicely into a watchpocket. The walk & talk is just perfect too. Most of these I preserve in minty condition, but I use this one. OH

I believe I started the post asking for a AAPK Club Knife in 2009
I’m lucky to have one of each year made and get excited to see the next selection!
Pleased with every knife made for us.

Bryan has worked hard every year in getting us these knives

I agree with that, Bryan has done an excellent job.

Just got an email and purchased, the AAPK 2020 Club knives are in!

Posted: **Fri Nov 06, 2020 5:17 pm**

Yup, I got the email and ordered mine.

Very nice collection John!

I too have all of the current AAPK Knives and just ordered my 2020 Knife as well.

I am not a fan of GEC either, however, I buy one of every type AAPK has to offer, because that is what I choose to do in order to support this wonderful Knife Site.

Thank you Bryan and Moderators for a Fantastic Knife Site!

Respectfully,

Tom

Thanks, Tom, and I agree with you, Tom.

They're SOLD OUT already?? WOW!! That was fast. Got my email at 10:16 AM. Didn't see it until I read this thread. Followed the link and it's marked as sold out. I believe that sets an AAPK Forum Knife record. Sure glad I wasn't planning to get one.

Posted: **Fri Nov 06, 2020 5:55 pm**

Jerry, blows my mind too. Same thing, an hour and a half and they are gone! OH

Posted: **Fri Nov 06, 2020 5:57 pm**

Yeah, WTF? I always buy a knife every year for my set. I got the email, and literally clicked the link and they were gone.

If anyone bought more than one and would like to help a brother out, hit me up, thx.

Congratulations Bryan. You sure knocked it out of the park with that one.

Edit: Since I'm the one who said "there will be no Lolly Scramble for the AAPK Annual knife", I feel obligated to eat my words. Would someone please pass the bourbon. I need something to wash those words down with.

Someone has generously stepped up to offer me a knife. Thank you!

Oh boy! We are in unprecedented territory here

I listed 90 of 103 available knives & they sold out way faster than I expected. Of the 13 left, I have commitments on about half, but some are soft commitments, so I may be able to get one to a few member who may have missed out.

I would prefer to distribute the few I can muster to regular club knife buyers who have collections going. Please contact me if that might be you. PM or email [email protected]
