Up for sale are a spring green and copperhead sawcut GEC Northfield #77 barlow, single blade clip from the recent run. I just received these yesterday from Collector Knives along with a red (I'm keeping the red).
These are in new mint condition. In both, the blade is a hair off-center (the red was too), and the spring is dead flush in the fully open and closed positions but a hair proud in the half-stop position (maybe 1/64th inch...the red was the same too). I didn't cut anything with them but the grinds appear to be even and sharp. Very smooth and non-gritty walk, as well as a very solid snappy talk in both. I am not too familiar with guessing the pull number on knives, but based on what I've read previously, I am thinking these are in the 6 to 7 range for pull. They are about as close to nail breakers without actually being nail breakers as I have experienced from GEC.
Price is: Both SOLD, which includes PayPal fees and USPS shipping. USA sales only please, and I am not interested in trades.
Pics below...I haven't noticed any issues with these such as hairline scratches, marks, etc. and they are still as received brand new yesterday. The apparent "scuffs" on the blades are not actually scuffs...they're just a bit of lint attracted to the oil and as received brand new.
