New 14 run

Color me confused....I guess I'll play detective on my #14 knives and try to figure this out.
 
Hey guys. I just wanted you to know. I was poking around on my carpeted floor and I found the shield under the table. This was like the third time I looked. A very small shield and I almost missed it again but I saw it out of the corner of my eye in the high pile of my carpet. Just want to reiterate again that the dealer that I have a lot of respect for did his job! I had and have no doubt about that. There is nothing the dealer could have done in this case and I just want to repeat that as much as I can. I posted the original post to verify if others have the same no pin deal and maybe we can get a definite answer from GEC as to why. Thanks again. And I will sending the tiny shield out on Friday to the dealer. Happy Thanksgiving!

What's this about? Was the secodary so hot that they had to make more? I saw a $400 sale for one the bay.
 
They have 8 up now and more coming from GEC.
Might drop that secondary price a tad.
 
I wish I had the foresight to realize that the green boot SFOs were going to be probably the hottest 14 of the entire run :) Huge respect to whoever called that one ahead of time.
 
I said in the talk GEC thread that they made it hard on this run! So many choices, hard to choose. Some of their recent runs peaked my interest until I saw the covers or blade shapes or combinations. This runs seems to have something for most tastes. I decided to get on the reserve for the green with boot shield. I’m no cowboy but something just seemed to go together there, American knife with a cowboy boot. Seems like it’ll be a nice classic little knife by the time my grandkids get their hands on it one day.

As far as I can tell...you were the first one to chime in on the green boot SFO. Good call :)
 
I made no predictions, but the green boot has always been one of my favorites. Was this a new shield specifically for this SFO and does Lee have proprietary rights for future use of the shield?

My 2 blade Northfield AYJB and I have been having lots of adventures lately.

I have been using it on squirrels (instead of my usual 54), and it also served to clean up the antlers from the buck I was lucky enough to harvest last week. I also managed to use it to slice open my right index finger! Not the knife's fault, operator error to the extreme.

I am I bit surprised to find a knife this small to be so useful. Pleasantly surprised, that is!

I really is a useful little knife. I like both the single and double bladed varieties of the 14 but, unfortunately, they have taken head of the line privileges over my poor Peanuts!

Straight from Melissa Tigner "Yes. We have trade marked this. "

I tried to use a Case peanut on squirrels and it just really wasn't enough knife for me. You need a stout blade to split that ribcage!
