2019 GEC 86 Oil Field Jack and Forum Knife Picture Thread

Anyone have experience with the sucker rod wood? I was wondering if it will darken with use. The silver color is really cool but I would like to see it age.

I am really impressed with this model. I might even try to find a stag version.
Give it a good rub down with some used diesel motor oil...

I'm betting you'll get it as dark as possible and retain the oil smell!

;)

Nice Sucker Rod, Jack!! Is there a Sheepfoot blade in the shadow, or did you remove it??:D

not yet Charlie! it is still in the shadow and I will likely have to seek out a new modder to do it. The person working on my 92 split and build atm will cease doing modifications and move on to custom work soon. But the great thing is, the sheepsfoot has the tang code and is much larger than even the 92's and will make another fine little knife soon.

As a woodworker, I know some woods will darken when exposed to sunlight, especially those will an "oil finish" like Danish oil, linseed oil, etc. Who knows about crude oil ??
Put it on a sunny window sill for a few days and see what happens.
 
Received my sucker rod 86 and it screams user. For those who have one, are you seeing a lot of scuffing on the bolsters and pommel? Mine looks like it was knocked around. Asked the distributor and was told that's just the way that finish tends to look
