GEC 86’s for 2023

[echoscout]

86 Lambfoot Barlow is my dream knife

It would certainly at the top of my wish list.

These look fantastic. The yellow rose is calling my name.

That shield is getting used quite often recently, isn't it? I personally like it, but on smaller patterns. We shall see.

I think it looks fine here, but barely. Any smaller and it would look puny.

Anybody own a soup bone TC that has some pictures handy to post?

Nice collection, John!! The first pic certainly shows the marrow channel, aptly named Soup Bone by GunstockJack!!

 

[mrknife]

now, i am most curious what the actual punch choice will be

 

[waynorth]

Bill has promised me the forged punch from the Texas Camp Knife for my edition!! I'm assuming they will all have them!!

Awesome news! I’ve wanted to try that punch! Hopefully now I land one hahah.

 

[Alex.Y.]

Looks like they are hurrying things a bit now. Can't wait to see what etch they put on Marrow Bone version, hope it is more modest than the River Town's. Slanted Northfield would be terrific, but think they put it only on satin blade versions recently.

 

[wickettedge]

I got a reservation for a River Town and I'm pretty stoked about it

 

[Jiki]

That River Town reminds me of something.

 

[fishin1635]

Oh boy that yellow rose is something else. Glad I reserved a yellow rose

Hot damn. One of the knives that got me into GEC was the 291319 Stockyard Whittler and tge Harness Jacks - mainly because of the punch. Dang, I hope to land one.

On another note, I'm not certain if I like a shield on a barlow. Perhaps it is a missed opportunity not to have the rose stamped into the bolster qua the acorns on the 2AB barlow.

Wondering what the "8821" signifies on the River Town blade etch…
