Had to recheck GEC page but no, next one in chute is an 811224…so definitely not a stockman. Guessing a bull moose.

Um, I'm guessing not a bull moose.

Haha right, must have made a ton of Spey blades.

Look at the picture with a cowboy on both images I posted.

All I’m saying is that it could be a generic cowboy image they use for any stockman, and we know the 91 is coming.

Can you name the dealer??

Can you name the dealer??

Not sure I can say since they're not a supporting vendor. It's the foggy hill dealer.

PM to you

It's the foggy hill dealer.

It took me a full 5 minutes of hard-thinking to put that together.

Just FYI, speculation is that these do NOT have pinned shields.

Update: New information suggests that shields may indeed be pinned.

In think that was the case with the last GEC made Cripple Creeks.

Yea remember some of the discussion about shields popping out of the 14s. Jigging was pretty cool though…

I believe it has to do with polishing the knife and not damaging the Buffalo relief.

Yes

Thanks Steve!

But it's not a generic cowboy, it's a cowboy from Dixie Stock Knife art.

And they usually use specific pictures for different patterns and even varieties.

Unless they don't.

 

[Alex.Y.]

Unless they don't.

Man... Alright, I give up on that one.

Still we have seen liners of #82 with bolsters attached though.

2024 the year of the stockman?

I didn’t know there were 82 liners/bolsters already made. If GEC going to make multiple stockmans this year that’s great.
