How Many GEC Patterns Do You Own?

[black mamba]

If my count is accurate, GEC have issued to date 62 different pattern numbers (ie. #15, #48, #73) of their folding knives. Not counting different blade combinations on the same frame, or fixed blade patterns, how many different pattern numbers do you currently own?

And if you don't own any GECs, please vote!

I’m too lazy to count, so I’ll just say a bunch.

You're making me work, Jeff.

If I am doing my math correctly, I definitely am over 35 but pretty sure still under 40.

 

[mbkr]

If I'm recollecting correctly, I have 11.
12, 14, 29, 33, 35, 38, 62, 68, 82, 83, 86,

Edit: I voted 6-10. Should be 11-20. Probably skew the entire poll

 

[echoscout]

If I counted correctly I have 22 patterns.

 

[black mamba]

Mine is 32, so just over half. I probably have another dozen that I tried, but no longer own.

I'm a rank amateur. I only own five GEC patterns -- the 73, 15, 74, 93, and 86. I used to own a 54, 72, and 77.

Only 2

I have 4. only been a few years of looking at GEC and not that lucky when they drop.

 

[rbeggs]

17 right now I think, but at least 26 total.

I fall in the 6-10 category.

Been a while since I even looked at them to be honest. I have a 3 each of patterns 12 and 77, two each of 15 and 48. One each of the 13 (BF forum knife), 61 (Congress), 62 (Maverick), 68 (Pony Jack), and 82 (Dixie Stockman).

So that's 9 patterns, 15 total knives.

The only one I ever carried much was the 12 Powderhorn Jack.

 

[Enactive]

I have 5 GEC patterns and 7 GECs total.

Well I counted 32 and voted, then read the part where you said “not counting fixed blade patterns” so I had to mark off the H20, making it 31. So my vote is (just barely) still accurate.

I will say, this was one time that having a spreadsheet (which I happened to be updating earlier today) came in handy. I first counted by memory using the pattern list on GEC’s website and missed at least four patterns that I forgot I owned.

And just because I already made the list, here it is: 06, 13, 14, 15, 18, 21, 23, 25, 33, 35, 43, 44, 46, 47, 48, 62, 68, 71, 72, 73, 74, 77, 78, 81, 83, 85, 86, 89, 92, 93, 99

I have the recent 94. It's my one and only. I've been chasing drops for a couple of years, and almost had a heart attack when I finally landed one this month.

40/41 Jeff was the count and then I second guessed where I left off, so it's 40ish

 

[Pàdruig]

You guys, uh, have spreadsheets?

 

[Pàdruig]

Let’s see…. Working the ol’ noodle here - mental faculties enhanced with fine adult recreational beverages - further enhanced by a rather potent English style pipe tobacco…

36 - my final number.

06, 09, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 21, 23, 25, 29, 33, 35, 38, 43, 44, 47, 48, 49, 62, 66, 68, 73, 74, 77, 78, 81, 82, 83, 85, 86, 89, 92, 93, 94, 97

I have an 82 and 85 at present. Both were gifted to me by a couple extremely generous members who wish to remain anonymous. Both knives have been carried, used, and sharpened.
If my will is followed, they will be in my RFP when they close the lid and plant me.
