2022 GEC Cattle Knife/Camp Knife #35 Thread

stagmeister said:
I got mine today and very pleased. Blades have nice pulls and snap. No blade rub so far. The Spear felt a little gritty but improved after an oil flush and blow out. Great looking knife! It's a little on the heavy side being a 3 blade. Mine weighed in at 96.7 grams.

That's a weighty one, trifle obese :D But has the looks:cool:

I never thought about it. But caplifter can actually be considered as a blade. Or by multi you mean more than 2?

Jack knives are any knife where the blade or blades/tools come out the same end of the knife. Multi blade both ends. Then the are further sorted into types and patterns. So for multi blade since the beginning of 2021 we have the 38, 68, and now the 35.
 
The Red 'Winterbottom' type bone really suits this one. Just wondering what other scales are in the pipeline, any info?

It's a fine 'trio' the Churchill had a great blade arrangement, the 2016 Forum Knife had style and now this sturdy and relatively rare type. :cool:

Isn't "blades on both ends" called a pen knife? I've read Levine, but honestly don't remember a "multi blade knife" term.
 
I like how low they have the secondary blades in the well when closed. Stockmen patterns have always bugged me with how high the sheepsfoot sits, but these look nicely settled in.

I unfortunately do not have Levine's guide and what I have gathered I have read on the pages of this fine forum. He is a picture from a post. I believe a pen knife would be a subcategory of multi blade.

Regardless of the name,still just 3 since 2020.

Well pleased with this one. Near perfect fit and finish and great, equal action on all three blades. A flush of the joints will only make it better.MEDIA=imgur]a/s4BNSVN[/MEDIA]

Man, you should definitely get it, Fourth edition for sure. It is worth it, trust me. I've seen some US stores still have them.

I even think that someone got to scan it, not for piracy but to save from exctinction. Though to do it right it would require to tear one apart, and I only got one. Currently it is more difficult than ever to get something from overseas, so maybe folks in US with goodwill and a scanner could do it.

Just checked, there 3 categories: jack, pen, and multi-blade. Yeah... My knowledge is getting blurry over time, I guess, sorry.

I will try to post a pic shortly.

From my intel, there will be just this one scale offered on the Cattle knife.
