What a beauty. Great smallish pattern - and even stainless! I'd like to see these made again - particularly 2 blade in a full clip & secondary coping or full sheepfoot, secondary clip@Chief
You have 3 from the most wanted list there
I was fortunate to bag this guy a few years ago; other than the 2014 Forum knife it is my favorite GEC.

I don't yet have a stainless GEC, in a quick look around the interwebs I rediscovered the Dog Paw. I looked at them a while back being a dog lover but never got one and forgot about them. Anyways, I decided to order one and now I wait. Guess I'll take the dogs for some walks to pass the time...we've got an 11 yr old golden retriever, a 10 yr old golden retriever Great Pyrenees cross, (we call her a great goldenees!) and now a 9 month old mastiff cross, (likely boxer, perhaps a bit of pit Bull And who knows what else mixed in there?)

An excellent pattern but one GEC seems to have forgotten about. I too prefer the 2 blade version, and the stainless over the carbon.
Who said Peanuts were the best small knife??
And Cashews are a better nut still

Old thread, great knife. Maybe because railroad conductor was my dad's profession, have always liked these. No halfstop results in a very smooth opening. I prefer the 2-blade over the later 3-blade version.
Love the coping secondary.
That Ivory and Ebony pair is absolutely stunning. Both are on my must get someday list.

Stainless Dog Paw & 1095 Whittler
Nice to see #02 is still looking good-I was the original purchaser of it . Sold it about 2years ago but I don't think you were the buyer
so it is making its rounds. Kept the SS 2 blade one, awlays liked it better.

Wow! I wasn't aware they were available in my favorite acrylic tortoise shell.

Beautiful example, lamco3. I think this is the first picture I've seen of a tortoise shell acrylic. Nice. I, too, wish we'd see another run of these. I just love the perfectly centered shield on a swell center. And lined bolsters don't look any better than they do on a 33. I also hope the GEC will so a slightly larger swelling center. Great knives. The models with coping blades, in particular, are to die for.

Yes, the faux Tortoise is genuine cool. Feel lucky to have it. They did some in other interesting scales e.g. Ivory Bone, Red Apple jigged and Micarta goldenrod, all Tidioute versions. I'd be after them too!

Hehehe. Good to see you, too, traumkommode.
This thread is making me regret selling the Buffalo Northfield I once owned. Makes my head SWELL just thinking about it.

@Chief, whats the shield on the far right green 33? I don't think I have ever seen that one.New pic with a couple additions, lucky to find a SS no bail stag. All two blade models, my preference on the 33 frame. No halfstop smooth opening.
