Thanks Harry!
We're doing well! Very busy, but well. Hopefully all is great for you too!
Yes, I've slowed way down on my collecting of everything - and am just picking up single pieces here and there. Just the stuff I want most. Limiting my time on knife sites helps to keep me from wanting more
Here's a different shot I took today...

@Sabercat Always good to see this and your definitive collection. The Eureka is one of GEC's really impressive patterns because it was a very old yet obscure knife and really scarce- rather like the 38 Farmer's Jack. Serious contributions to cutlery history rather than some of the whimsical stuff they've got up to lately 
The Galvanic Stag is my ambition, and to think I had a brief chance to get one at the time but faltered...dream knife
Wish they'd do a Talon in that Galvanic style, all steel and stainless too . So let's see those Talons please, I have only one an Ebony, very generous gift from a Forumite in Canada who has sadly fallen silent.
Another 'version' that could be rewarding would be to use the Talon/Eureka frame to house a Lambfoot blade rather than pairing with another big blade as on the forthcoming 88. Seems to me this would make a very interesting Swell-Centre knife.
Thanks, Will

It had a tang stamp of JBF Champlin and Sons, the start of Cattaraugus Cutlery.
Some handles were made from wood salvaged from the old Cattaraugus factory.
That's about all that I remember. Somebody else can fill in the rest of it.

Look at the Second Row Up and 4th and 5th from the Left . I believe that GALVANIC is Stamped into the blade and will never wear off . @Sabercat would you Pleeeeease show a closeup of the blade ????? There are some of us Knife Knuts who really like stuff like that .

Here's the closest photo I have on hand. I'll have to get them out to get a better zoom shot. I'll have to redo my research...I know the JBF blade was NOT done by GEC, but rather a fellow in AZ who etches guns. I think the Galvanic is a laser etch that Bill sent out to have done.
