NEW BOOK   

 FEBRUARY 25, 2010

Many of us wonder about the reason behind GEC’s use of the Northfield and Tidioute brand names on the knives they produce.

How about a reprint of possibly the oldest known American Knife Company catalog in existence. Pictures of a complete 1869 Northfield catalog just recently discovered. This and many old pictures and stories that have been just waiting to be discovered.

To top that off, learn about GEC’s unique history as well. Over 60 years worth of experience from skilled craftsman Bill Howard and long-time dealers Ken and Ryan Daniels.

As this and plenty more await you when you delve into the pages of “Great Eastern Cutlery, Born in America.” David L. Anthony well known knife historian has thoroughly researched the stories of these old companies. No doubt this will be a “must have” for the knife history buffs and contains valuable information on GEC productions and great photos as well.

Be watching for the long awaited release early this summer and grab a copy before they are gone. Keep watching for update information as it becomes available.
