Brass is back on the menu... GEC #44

[singin50]

The pen blades tend to be a little less in pull overall.

I am liking the colors of the Cocobolo and brass. Hopefully I can request a lighter colored, or figured one when I place my order.

Who usually accommodates requests like this?

the best thing to do is to call the reseller customer service number BEFORE ordering. Sometimes they'll sort through a few a find one while you're talkign to them. I found that by simply putting a note in the Notes field during the order submittal goes overlooked. Helpful hint: My experience with cocobolo is it usually on a redness scale from red to brown, not "lighter" or "darker".

Mine had a less of a pull on the Pen when I first took it out of the tube, but after flushing all joints it performed with the same power and effort as the Clip.

Thanks for the reply. Failed to mention I had already flushed mine as well. I'll keep on using it then

 

[untytled]

Hoping I'm quick enough on the draw for one of these.

 

[singin50]

That’s some serious bark!!

 

[chivaceae]

Wow... that is some nice "barky" stag ... me like it, a lot!

 

[black mamba]

Ooooh yeah! I've got a stag reserved, and that looks terrific!

 

[singin50]

Yeah, that stag looks amazing and kudos to those scoring one.
GEC never ceases to amaze!
Really diggin the jiggin on this one too. And I will add that the weight is very nice too!

 

[MerryMadMonk]

I wholeheartedly agree, Perry! The Buffalo Jacks are GEC at their very best! Makes me want to get backups to the backups!

 

[singin50]

Wow Al, your jig is a beautiful example indeed!!!

Love how they are using the checkered jigging, really makes it like a gunstock, I think this one could turn out to be the best of the bunch.

Hadn't thought of that, but now that you mention it, it's pretty neat.

I think that you may very well be right Augie . That is why I have one reserved .

I agree - reminds me of the Golden Brown Jigged 78's from late last year/early this year...

Just got my notice from CK for the brass and cocobolo with a surprise that some will be satin instead of polished.

 

[singin50]

Not surprised frankly. It will only take a very few minutes of handling for it to be satin instead of high polished anyway. Depending of course on the amount of acid in your skin.

 

[tmd_87]

Got my order in for my #44 in cocobolo!

I am ready for this one...seems like I have been waiting a bit for these to be done!

 

[JTB_5]

I should be getting my goldenrod jigged bone in the mail today. I'll post some pictures when I get it. Can't wait to see how this one feels in hand. The ebony looks very nice, but something about jigged bone on this pattern got me interested.

Is that referring to the blades, or the brass?
