2022 GEC Cattle Knife/Camp Knife #35 Thread

[Nebrasketball]

If they run cattle knife and camp knife back to back, I’m going to have to ask for a raise.

 

[Mingecutter]

Awesomeness. I'm in on one of these

 

[Travman]

I just hope the secondaries on these aren’t as anemic as those on the 66 and 81 stockmans.

They just need more iron.

I’m seeing an awning in that picture. Can’t wait for my awning knife.

I don't recall them using the propeller with the Tidioute stamp...has that been done before?

True, no Tidioute stamp and I think it's only the 2nd time GEC has used this shape. Whatever, it looks very suitable

Thanks, Will

It appears to me that the cattle knife spear may have come from the 2016 harness jacks. What say you?

I wouldn't be surprised- once you figure out what size blade fits in a pattern, I don't think you'd want to reinvent the wheel.

Certainly, I think that with the 35 in particular but other models as well the have the parts an pieces designed to make a variety of combos at anytime.

I'm guessing the sheepsfoot will come from the Churchill, or at least I hope so.

It's one of my favorite blades on any knife ever.
The good news is that the grind would favor a krinked spey, and therefore be unaltered.
The bad news is that it's typically the sheepsfoot that gets the krink.

Let you know next week.

I just pulled out my 53 Cuban, sheepsfoot is krinked. It's not really bad news for us non-engineer types.

I'm hoping the same. Love that thin sheepsfoot on there. I also like how low the sheepsfoot sits on the cattle knife. At least that's what the pic makes it seem like. I guess you'll let us know next week?

hahaha- to be fair, I don't expect to get my hands on one- I'm more or less just curious.
GEC is an absolute wizard of fitting blades in small spaces.

I am praying that mine shows up without any of the issues that seem to have plagued the last couple runs. These look fantastic, and I mean, who doesn't love a #35?

 

[sf fanatic]

Well, mine just showed up and it’s a beauty! Fit and finish is excellent. Blade pulls on mine are in the 6-7 range and nice and snappy. Well done GEC!
