Up for sale are a few pretty rare Great Easterns. These are for sale in the US, prices include shipping. First "I'll take it" posted in this thread followed by PM for payment info and prompt payment get the knife. If payment is not received in reasonable time, the sale will move down to the next person in line. I reserve the right to approve sales before a deal is made. Payment will be accepted through PayPal G&S.

Now on to the knives.

First up are a pair of #620311 Courthouse Whittlers in Genuine Stag, which are 2 of only 8 produced, never used, carried or sharpened. They come with the original tube, waxed paper and unopened shield/pins. They are "Bookends" of the run, as they are the first and last made available for purchase by Great Eastern, serial #02 and #08. It took me about 5 years to get these, and they have been in my collection for about 3 years. They were purchased from reliable members here on BF. There is some minor blade rub on the secondary blades, although the blades are all well-centered. They are for sale as a pair for SOLD

Next is a #621312 Maverick in Genuine Stag, #19. It has been sharpened on a Wicked Edge, although never used or carried. It comes with he original tube, waxed paper and unopened shield/pin. There is some minor blade rub on this one as well. The stag is some of the best I've seen from GE. Price is SOLD







Next up is a #151213STL TC Barlow in Ebony. This was from the first run of TC Barlow clip blades produced by GE. I'm the original purchaser, it's never been used, sharpened or carried. There are a couple of faint scratches on both blades parallel to the spine/cutting edge that were on the knife when I received it from GE. Blades are dead-centered, great w&t. Price is SOLD

Next is a #153213STL TC Barlow in African Blackwood. This was from the first run of TC Barlow sheepsfoot blades. It has been sharpened on a Wicked Edge, never used or carried. It has some of the same parallel scratches as on the Clip I have listed. It also has a pepper spot on the pile side of the main blade I buffed lightly when I discovered it and had it on display. Price is SOLD

Next is a #792312LP Montana Whittler in Jobillo Wood, serial #05. It's a factory test pattern, and has the best Jobillo I've seen. I hand selected this knife, and it has superb build quality, quite possibly the best I've seen yet from GE. It has been sharpened on a Wicked Edge, although never used or carried. It has some blade rub marks, although the blades are dead-centered. Price is SOLD





More pictures to follow in next post, and Thank You for looking.

Sorry, for some reason I didn’t receive it. Messaging has been a little inconsistent lately.
I understand. I'll post here as well, then, if it's helpful.

The action is very clean, with half-stops on all 3 blades. I'd rate the pull on the main as a 5, and the secondaries as a 4 on a scale of 1-10. The pictures I took don't do the stag justice, it's a beauty.


Edit: For clarity, this response was in answer to a question about the #62 Maverick from another BF member. I mixed up PMs that I had received, although we have communicated through PM since then.
