Calling All #26 Owners: Whatcha Got Up Your Sleeve?

I only have one, but it's a nice one. I like the pattern too. The 26s must be more difficult to make than the 25s, because they're significantly more expensive. I carried this little guy for several months before something else new and shiny came along.

Andrew....

At 3" it's kinda tough to appreciate a Sleeveboard pattern whereas the Barlow and Jack I think at 3" is more welcome......either way the I do like the look of the pinched bolsters

Just surfing some older threads... I love seeing these higher-end LVS, Ivory, and Mammoth 26’s.

This is what I’m enjoying for the rest of the day. It is a 2012 with Cocobolo handles that age turned dark enough to pass for ebony.

Is there a dedicated thread for GEC’s 26 pattern. I looked, but didn’t find one. I could have sworn there was one a few years ago.

Originally, I only liked the spear point 26’s and thought the wharncliffe versions were horrid. Tastes change and the wharncliffes are are beautiful.

What do you think of the stubby little clip blade? It's too cute not to like in my opinion.

It took me a while to warm up to the 26 clip points. But yes, you are right, those are cute little stubby versions of a clip point. I really fell for my stag clip point after I picked it up at the 2018 GEC Rendezvous. It was my favorite carry for about a year.
