More patterns... in fewer materials... in larger numbers...Would we rather have more SFOs or more patterns produced per year?

I'd like same # of patterns, MORE materials and less numbers is fine. It seems you can usually get a non SFO without pre ordering so long as you dont wait a month to order.More patterns... in fewer materials... in larger numbers...
It should have a Texas shield--no one ever mistakes Texas for any other state!
Kalifornia either.

Good pointI hope the #33's are not a hint at another change - just two variations per pattern. More patterns - a fraction of the options.....
I hope Mike doesn't mind me moving his quote over to this thread...
I thought it might be better to leave the Forum Knife discussion uncluttered.
I was wondering if this meant we won't see any more NF and TC Barlows?
knifeswapper - do you know if this is just to get back on track this year because of the covid closure or is this a permanent decision?
Maher & Grosch as well...
Sounds permanent. Waynorth, Northwoods, MG, Smith, et.al. TC barlows, #77 barlows, et.al.
Not really a lot of clarification. But I think it has more to do with complications than capacity. My interpretation may be off a bit - as I have already told more than I know
I hope this opens the doors for a regular production GEC Barlow.
I love TC and NF Barlows, but I'm so DONE with Loliscrambles and Secondary Markets.
Seems like this will make secondary markets worse. I know I'm not selling any GEC SFO's anytime soon. If GEC runs a factory Barlow I don't see it not being a loliscramble to get one.

Please elaborate...I don’t know, but I’m not too sure those correlate negatively as clearly as you might think.
Honestly the dropping of sfo's may turn out to be a good thing.
GEC may then be able to release more variety to everyone each run.
Or produce more pattern runs per year.
Either way everyone wins.
Please elaborate...
I was asking if we would like to see more SFOs or more patterns throughout the year?
I really wonder how much of this is because of the Covid shutdown, I don't know if they lost any key employees or are having difficulty with materials but I'm sure Bill has a good reason.
