Update to the Update re: 1865's
Man, I hate it when I'm wrong and there's no one to blame it on! Hopefully, it's the last mistake I'll make this morning!!!!
Let me make a correction.
The 1865's WILL have the Brazilian Cherry handles with the "Christine" shield.
It's the 734 HUNTER that will have Bocote rather than the previously announced Brazilian Cherry.

I've been a bit lax in passing on info on this one. Also, last I knew, production numbers on the Northfields were going to be limited to around 25 each of the Snakewood, Genuine Stag, Primitive Bone and the Seashell Perylic.

i mainly posted it for the description which i thought was pretty interesting.

Just saw that the first '65, in glitter gold, just got released today - Jan.25
Gee, I am really impressed at how often a new pattern is released from GEC!
