Mine are scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Really looking forward to owning these knives. It's Petit LeMans weekend, so it's a good surprise to see them, before I have to wait until Sunday.
Many firsts for me in owning these knives - I'm really excited!
Hope to see some pics of these beauties once they start arriving.
Lucky, I still don't have tracking yet. I didn't think they were shipping until today.
For those who are waiting to see Copperhead saw cut...
My 2015 Spear/Coping went in for repair of a cracked scale and was refitted with Copperhead scales.

For the rest of us, could you grind that spear down to a clip point and file in the matchstriker serrations on the long pull? Y'know, just to help us with the visualization.![]()
Due to the misfortune of a drop and cracked scale in July, I've become the proud owner of perhaps the only Spear/Coping 77 Barlow in Copperhead saw cut. Thank you to GEC for the beautiful repair.
Very happy to have The Precious back!

Very nice, AR. Might have to start "dropping" a few of my knives on the tile floor, too.![]()

On a serious note, that's one reason I generally prefer bolsters on both ends of bone-handled knives. Of course that would look silly on a Barlow, but it's a personal preference on other patterns. Though I have violated that preference from time to time.
Arizona!!!!! Glad you got your baby back. I think it looks great with copperhead saw cut covers. I was glad to hear how well they took care of you.
