Hello all,

This is a pic of the C&J Gerrard II. A canvas and leather spectator that they used to make. (Benchgrade)

I was just wondering, does anybody have it and know which last it's on?

All the best,

Thanks very much. One further question then, how does the 238 fit in comparison to the 337? Will I take the same size?

I don't have any experience with the 238 last, though to my novice eye, the 337 seems to have a more elongated toe. Still I don't think this automtically means you have to wear a different size in the 2 lasts. Is there no place near you where you can try the 2?

FWIW, I wear a 9D is most US shoes and I have to wear 8E in the 337. Someone here may have some experience with the 238 last and may have something to add.

I am sure if you called them they would be able to tell you too.
