Great Eastern Cutlery 2024 lucky pattern 13

[Reconmarui]

I'm going to pretend that I didn't read this. I was happy to score one that lasted 10 minutes on the retailer's site.

You should be happy, any GEC score is a great score. If a vendor is more $ they will stick around longer, so you probably got a good price!

I wish these 13's were more popular so I wouldn't be able to spend so much on them. No self control here.

Indeed, I'm very happy with the price I paid. I really did end up taking a walk in the woods to clear my head. Scoring a GEC on the drop is incredibly rare for me, and I usually just skip the lolly-scramble.

I'm impressed with my first two 13s! Classy knives. Super snappy actions and perfect fit and finish by GEC standards. I love the slender wharncliffe. I didn't win the cocobolo lottery, but it's still a nice knife. My stag and hummingbird acrylic are on the way soon. Hopefully I do better in the stag lottery.

Crappy indoor pic fresh out of the tube, but I'm going to get nice pics of the full set when they arrive.

How are people not jumping all over these?!

2-blade 13s in cocobolo have been available for three days now. When’s the last time a GEC has sat that long (besides Hunters?)

The last 97 release I would guess.

 

[GPO MAN]

Well I like mine.

One less cocobolo clerk available now.

May as well enjoy the situation while I can.

I love this pattern, both of my coco 13s have perfect action for a smaller knife - a smooth 5.0.

I am going after more of these, so get outta my way!

 

[drj211]

Great pattern. Great action, and sharp enough to cut butter!

mail call today!

 

[Viper84]

Stag is here!

Stag is here!

Beautiful!

The mailman dropped mine off yesterday, but I just had a chance to take a photo this morning. It's a fantastic knife!

I feel lucky to have got one not on the secondary market. Nice cocobolo. Love it.

I just got lucky and scored a stag whip on a drop. Might be a catch and release as I already have red jigged bone from the last round and a black maple from the current run. We will see, hopefully the covers will be nice.

 

[Viper84]

I guess GEC changed their hummingbird acrylic. No more red streaks. Comparison to the 59 from 2022.

 

[Elgatodeacero]

Viper84 I think that is just variations in the material…..? Some of the assembly pictures looked much closer to your 59.

Ah ok, interesting. Never seen one that was all green on both sides.

There was at least one like that on production pics of the Whip, and another one on pics of Clerk, which is unusual. Maybe those two are the only ones, maybe not...
