GEC seems to be wrapping up production on some rather hot patterns and though attention on said patterns is far from waning, I do find myself looking at the next couple of items that we know are in progress.
Though there has been a smattering of talk in regards to the Churchill in the GEC thread, I thought it would be a good idea for us to have a place where the discussion can be easier to follow.
Reception to this particular pattern configuration has seemed to be a bit lukewarm and that could simply be a perception driven by the rather robust enthusiasm exhibited towards the factory's recent productions. However, as I am quite a fan of the 2016 Forum knife or #35 Harness Jack, I am actually interested in the Churchill and am interested to see what you all have to say about it.
I think the size of the #35 is pretty perfect and the fact that this will again have a single double ended spring is pretty exciting too. It makes for a very pocketable knife and my Harness Jack has seen a lot of use as a result. The clip/sheepfoot combination has to be one of the most useful combos out there so the configuration certainly has that going for it. I think the knife has the makings of being a rather solid user.
Here is the GEC rendering with the Northfield trim being exhibited.
