GEC #47 Harvester and #74 Cotton Sampler. First 2023 run.

Got my Micarta today, I really like it. Swayback handle, hawkbill blade, thin about 3/8" thick. Nice knife!

Hope I might get the Rosewood version.

I am somewhat ambivalent about it all. On one hand, I prefer transparency, on the other, I understand it from a collector's viewpoint.

Regardless, unless one is pretty plugged in on some or all of the Facebook channels, one is apt to miss out on the smaller runs. Facebook is a non-starter for me, those that enjoy that arena can reap its rewards. I'm just happy to get at least one from a run that interests me these days through the regular means.



I was able to score a micarta Harvester recently, only to be notified by the dealer that they oversold their stock so I was then offered a Rosewood at the same price. I didn't pass it up and I just received it yesterday. It's a very nicely made knife, though I wish the pulls were firmer on a working knife this large.

I know you would have preferred the micarta Pàdruig Pàdruig . This magic might help you CLICK CLICK :cool:
 
Has anyone found a nice pocket slip that can accommodate the harvester? Looking forward to seeing how y'all are carrying these!
 
I think this would complement the #47 very well.



Best regards,
 
With a small sample size of a couple of days.

This is a fairly capable knife. Once you get accustomed to the shape and geometry of the cutting angles it work quite well. Broke down a sweet potato and some chicken last night, I have no complaints.

More to come.

I sat out on these. But, what a nice patina and a beautiful photo. Glad your getting good use out of it and enjoying the knife!
 
I’m really liking the way textured micarta feels in the hand. Nice and grippy.
