GEC is DONATING the Dogleg Prototype For the "Wounded Warrior Project" Auction Knife!!!

Categories: TSA Announcements
I'm incredibly pleased to announce that the Wounded Warrior Project auction knife is going to be the Dogleg Prototype.
About a week ago I talked to Chris at Great Eastern and told her I was going to have another auction for the Wounded Warrior Project. I wasn't asking for a 'freebie', but only suggestions for a nice auction knife. After a little discussion, Chris suggested she talk to Ken and see if it'd be possible to get a prototype to auction off. When she called back and said it was a 'go', I was thrilled. When I found out that Great Eastern was DONATING the Dogleg Prototype, I was pleased beyond words. I would have been happy just to have had the opportunity to buy it and put it up for auction but this is really a generous gesture.
The details aren't complete yet, but at this point it appears the Prototype will most likely be an acrylic, color to be determined. The Proto will be the only knife produced with the Prototype etch and the first one off the line. A fantastic collectible that a most of us never get a shot at and the money raised will be going for a great cause.
For now, stay tuned for more details. Once I'm sure what the handle material will be, I'll post the info. Also, I'll try to get photos as soon as the knife is made. Pass the word to your friends and fellow collectors. Chat it up on the boards and make sure everyone knows what kind of folks are operating and working at GEC!!! There will be a few more items included with the knife and I'm looking at opening the bidding around Mid-April and running into May.
100% of the proceeds are donated to the Wounded Warrior Project. Visit their website at: www.woundedwarriorproject.org
Thanks Chris, Ken, Bill and everyone else at Great Eastern Cutlery. You're truly a class act!!!

Comment by Scott King on August 7, 2009 at 6:52am - OK ladies, what's the last thing you used our everyday carry for? And do you carry one on a clip and or, in your purse? Heck, if I have the luxury of carrying a hand bag, I'd carry everyday for sure.

Comment by Andy Voelkle "AxeMan" on June 21, 2009 at 4:38pm - When we met at the university 44 years ago I gave her a nice 4" blade folder to carry. Now she carries three knives, and in fact works daily at her laboratory with one in her hand. She's pretty good, and fearless, and quick.

Hey Ladies (and Lee :) )
I wanted to drop in and say thanks for meeting up here in this group and at iKC too. I know you ladies have things well in hand, but if I can help in any way, let me know.
If I get a wild hair I might start a discuss or reply, but mostly just drop by from time to time.
Scott

Thanks for the positive comment,The leather stamps are made from nails.
Man that sure is a beauty,hard core all the way! Gotta love that sheath ,all that leather stacked !!
wow! yeah that's a fantastic list.
I think you need to add WD-40 or a similar product to help remove dirty oil from the pivots of folders or any moving parts and to help loosen stuck screws.
another item would be lok-tite or a similar product to s…
Add a can of Ren Wax to keep them nice and purdy and I also use a little bag of Silica gel to keep the moisture out !
