How about a "Show your GEC model 73's"

My Only 73, the single spey Farmer:

That is some fine macassar ebony on that 73! I'd love to get my hands on one with that kind of character.

Here are my 73s

My #73.



Still GEC's best pattern IMO. Now they just need to make it with an appropriate clip blade, a la Tony Bose Back Pocket.

The wood is what I fell in love with when I first saw it. I am really in love with with this knife. I am probably the odd one here; with this knife I don't really feel the need to buy another. I guess I am not really a collector.
 
Single blade long pull in primitive bone.

Two blade jack in burnt arrowhead bone.

I own the single blade. I regret not buying the jack too. Live and learn I guess ~
BTW I didn't take this pic.

Good idea for a thread. The 73 is a central model for GEC right from the beginning and offers a lot of choice of scales.I prefer the single-blade to the Jack, have one of those in stainless but would like to get it converted to single but fear nobody can do it without cracking the scales, which I like.
Here's my flat bolster 73
