Lets talk GEC!

Just imagine that frame turned into a Stockman though

Ok, that gets the gears turning....

I have 3 14, love them, but imho the 25 is more pocketable and useable, thanks to fatter blade and handle. Difference of weight is negligible. I wish they make a new batch soon.

I agree. I like them both, but the #25 feels more substantial, less like a “small knife.” I could always use another #25 or two.

I love everything about this picture.

And I agree - the #25 seems so small, but it feels very different and more substantial in-hand, than say, a Peanut. I particularly love it with a sheepsfoot blade.

Different knife here, but to join in on the chorus discussing the 25, I have to agree that it is much more pleasing to carry than the 14. There is something magical about that shape and size! It does not feel like a small knife yet it nestles perfectly in the pocket. You have to experience a 25 to fully understand why it has been so popular. (That stag barlow 25 is one for the ages Will Power !) The 14’s seem much more toy like in comparison. Maybe the two blade 14’s are more substantial. I have not owned a two blade version. I prefer single blade knives.

Getting back to the knife in my photograph, although it is not as pocket friendly as the 25, this Signal Jack might very well be my candidate for the prettiest knife ever made by GEC!

Those all look like keepers to me... I could be totally happy with just those five knives.

Thanks John! I’m trying to convince myself that I can be too!

The purge?

I just sold a bunch of stuff. These are the last of my GEC’s.

Well, you kept some nice ones.

Practicing my cell phone photography until I decide on a new scanner! This Slim Trapper from 2013 has a lot of character in the Ivory Bone handles!! (Venetian blinds decorate the bolster reflections!! )View attachment 1784405View attachment 1784406
