Have a '99 NA, still going strong. Cant bring myself to get rid of it, so reliable. Used it to commute from PA to NY, drives and handles as good or better than than my long gone '95 3 Series
You can pull a fuse, or put an inline switch to convert to two wheel drive...cant bring myself to do it, love the way it handles.....worth the extra/less, mpg's

I'm not usually into serrated edges, but this was a gift from a teacher of mine.

Today, I'm carrying my new knife. 1095 steel, sweet linen micarta scales in OD Green, razor sharp. It's a wonderful blade...what? What ESEE is it? Oh, sorry, it's not an ESEE:
GEC Cody Scout #72 Tidioute model
Two great knives again today Forrest, that #72 is sweet! Now I want one....

There's nothing the mighty Cadet can't do Andrew, you might decide it's all you need!
I have my Kershaw Skyline today, I would carry this knife a LOT more if not for the pocket clip. I have to find a deep carry clip for it. If anyone knows of a good one (other that STR), let me know. Also have the SAK Cadet and AAA Maratac in my pocketses.

Thanks, Erik! I am still in love with that green Alox, and I like this pic in particular. The backdrop you used made the green of the scales really pop. One of those, and an orange Cadet will definitely be in my collection one day!
Unfortunately, I can't. Just Google GEC #72 green micarta and multiple sites will come up who have one in stock (at differing prices). I didn't see anyone who had one whom I recognized as a Bladeforums sanctioned vendor, so I didn't want to post any links.

Let's just say that I'm really starting to appreciate Traditionals. I have taken this #72 out in front of coworkers who I know to not be Knife Friendly (TM) a few times now, and no one batted an eye! A far cry from when I used my ZT 0801 a couple weeks back to open a box in front of one of them. "OH MY GOD IS THAT A KNIFE!!!!!" Oye, some folks. Also, I'm still drooling over that particular duo, Paul! That's definitely definition of steel perfection right there, and a beautifully done shot as well.
