Lets talk GEC!

[Slice-and-dice]

Among my smaller folders is this excellent GEC #83 in Mexican Bocote wood... shown with leather slip-style sheath. A very useful 2.75" blade, 3.25" handle...

You trying to ban high-capacity knives?

I got rights, y'know!!

I was talking to the guy that invented pants. He told me the reason we have 4 or more pockets is so we can carry 4 pocket knives. I'm all about high capacity single blades

Hadn't realized a long pull 15 Spear had come out in 2021- must have fallen asleep at the wheel Mind you, it is nearly three years now... All steel too? That's decisive. Be a nice companion for this Smooth Bone Clip- just a very useful and aesthetic pocket-knife that's improving all the time.

Just a proof of concept run, now they need to do the full allotment of covers.

Yes, still deluding myself about a truly Classic Acrylic they're cooking up..but maybe? Smooth Bone too Black Camel (kind of Piebald but I like the effect)

Happy Holidays !

Exactly!!! I’d love to see a Texas Camp knife or a Whaler! Never been able to acquire either.

I missed out on the gentleman jack stag in 14,but I have lots of time left, God willing.I'm sure the next pattern to come will have a high probability of me liking one of the configurations .let the knives roll out lol.

I think someone mentioned that's not likely, sorry.

There are no photos that I could find on the GEC site and it was a one cover run between the Barlows and urban jack in 2021.

Strange. I am sure there was a pic of that 15 back in 2021. Maybe they've deleted it by mistake.

Totally missed that this was a lockback! Definitely would like to add this to my arsenal.

Do folks think we’re ever likely to see GEC do an actual run of bunny knives with various covers. The forum knife was obviously a hit and I’m surprised they haven’t followed up on that with their own line. I’d jump at the chance to own and use one as I’m sure many would.

It'd have to be a clip to be a true bunny/rabbit knife wouldn't it?

That's a beauty at any rate though.

It's my understanding that it also needs to be black to be a "true" bunny knife so there is that.

It is also traditional for cutlers to have their own interpretations of these things lol. Or at least that is what I see when I look through old catalogs.

Some folks aren’t patient enough to wait for GEC to do a run in the blade configuration of their choice.

Now make a clip into a spear. Lol. Nice work Bryon. You see, Bill is just leaving you options by building spear models.

The perfect knife, exquisite work sir.

I have the 39 from gec and the 39ish made for marbles at queen when bill hòward was in charge.i haven't used the 39 yet because I'm spoiled with gec and case to try.but it is a great pattern that fits the hand nicely.im in the process of lowering the Pen blade on the 39 to make access to the long nail nick on the spear a little easier. On the marbles the pen is behind the spear with nail nicks on opposite sides.but i get stuck using 3 or 4 patterns and have a hard time changing,I guess I'm just loyal or scared of change lol.or else if it ain't broke don't fix it.
