Will the Gayle Bradley 2 go into production again?
I see it is still on KC's site and isn't listed as discontinued. :confused:

I'm anticipating its return as well!

It appeared in the 2020 catalog, so it's still technically in production. I'm guessing Taichung has been busy and we will see more of these soon enough, just wish I had more information about when.

If it’s worth anything I called the SFO today and they told me more would come. I just hope it is not shadow discontinued when stock doesn’t come back.

I wish I would have bought one back when they were easy to find.

I just picked up a LNIB Gayle Bradley 1 off the secondary market and a new Gayle Bradley 2 from a retailer here in Canada who still has stock. I plan on only keeping the one I prefer most. Have had the #2 for a couple of weeks just to fondle it. The #1 I won't get till next weekend.
I hope I don't like them both ...

Same here. Depending on when more are in stock it may be my first knife buy of the year. It's definitely the one I'm wanting the most.

I had a GB2 a couple of years ago and I sold it when comparing it to the GB. In hindsight I really wish that I had kept the GB2 but it and the GB1 are a lot more dissimilar knives than their name implies or that I understood when I first purchased the 2. It's like comparing a work truck to a slick El Camino. They both serve a purpose, they're just different. All that to say that I am also patiently waiting on a re-release for the GB2 and I am really interested in the form that the Bradley 3 will take. It would be nice to get some feedback on a timeline for any of this if one is known.

Have a mate that’s been waiting over a year for a GB2

Any news on when we will see them again.....Sal ?

In stock at bladeops, cutlery shoppe, knifecenter and knifejoker.

Definitely one I wish I didn't sell and would love to buy one again...but I can't bring myself to do it at the price their at these days. Especially when I got mine around 3 years ago, with an Ebay coupon and offered made for $119 brand new! :eek:

Ya I think I paid $120 when these dropped directly from one of my favorite dealers before MAP.

I just got an email from blade hq saying they would be in stock soon.

I'd like to see a Cru-carta exclusive GB2 or GB1!

That would be fun! Has there ever been a Taichung exclusive?

No pictures please. Otherwise this thread is going to cost me $171.50...

If you don't mind it in M4, I'm pretty sure I've seen Sharpdressedknives.com has some micarta scales available for it. I think Larry Mott may actually have them on his if I remember correctly?

I believe the steel choice is made by Mr. Bradley, so I thinks it is long odds to see it in something other than M4.

That's right! Mine are from Suingab though. Top notch.

Yes. Off the top of my head Positron (KC-orange smooth G10/S35VN) and a few different Dominos
