I have this Great Eastern Cutlery made Bradford Cutlery Single Shot trapper, based off of the GEC 23 frame. It has wonderful brass bolsters, liners, and shield. The shield is shaped like a .22 long rifle, and is superbly done and fitting. The covers are blood red jigged bone, and they are nice and dark and go well with the brass. It has a match strike long pull. It is centered well, has no gaps, and is generally an amazingly nice looking knife (with a super useful blade shape to boot). The ONLY reason I am trading this is because I had expected it to be pinchable, as I like in a strong springed knife. If you are okay with a strong spring (I would rate it an 8, and I have weak nails) I can't imagine a better built or nicer looking knife for this price. You can barely get the normal GEC #23's for this price, and this is certainly an amazing example with the red bone, brass bolsters, unique shield, and cool overall theme.
