GEC 25s - Gots 'em?

I had three, but the GF took one. I put a patina on one and left the other shiny and wipe the 1095 down after every use. I can't wait to see the patina that my GF develops. I told her as long as it's not wet or has adhesive on it - rock on. She took the red, but here they are.

My forced patina...

Her saying that her knife matches her new bag - which I think is a play on me and how match all my accoutrements.

I really like these little jacks. The fit so well in the fifth pocket. They're just a joy for "city carry."

I just distressed a KSF sheath - sandpaper and Alan Edmunds shoe creams. I then just buffed it with a shoe polishing brush and let it sit for a day.
 
Anyone out there waiting on one of Barry's SFO watchpocket Barlows? I am VERY happy that I was able to get a snakewood on order, and am now waiting on its arrival. I already received my 25 spear in che chen, but am waiting to take a group photo once the other one shows up. I will say, more as a general note, that GEC seems to be tapping into some very nice wood supplies for this past year's production. Anyone else notice this? Every che chen 25 I have seen is just fantastic looking. Anyway, pictures soon.
Thanks,
Brian
 
I got mine! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D



All watchpocket orders shipped out on Monday, so you should get yours soon.
 
I got a couple and ended up keeping the 25 EO in che chen. It is simply stunning. The wood is amazing, the pinched bolsters, cloud badge and "Northfield" etch are just awesome. Is this the first use of this etch? It is the most attractive I have seen.

Ugh. . . I swear, just when I think I'm done for a while. . . Ordered one tonight. [emoji4]
Thanks,

Great little knives. This version reminds me of the 85 EO's in that I never use the nail nick/pull. I think the EZ's would look good without pulls, or at least it would be a different combo for GEC......

Anyone using the pulls/nicks with these EO's?
 
Since I see my favorite #25 posted, I have to post mine. I absolutely love this knife. All patina done by me. I feel it gives it even more character.
