Lets talk GEC!

The Washington Jack was a Charlie Campagna SFO before his came under the Waynorth brand. The sibling run of Tidioite and Northfield 77 Jacks was called the "Yankee Jack" and they were outstanding knives, very hard to find these days.

I hope it's not another run of 94s.

I love 94s. Very underrated pattern.

I have to agree, a lot of blade in the 94s and some of the best Walk n Talk in my collection..

The recent 94 and 49's are great looking. There needs to be a white bone to go with the blue and the red bone versions. Also an acrylic Declaration of Independence - "We hold these truths to be self-evident . . ."

What calm? We’ve just had 93’s and 38’s!

Is anyone excited for these 38 half Whittlers?? I am. I managed to snag yellow snow version yesterday.

 

[mrknife]

for me, if they had a clip maybe. i did grab an older 38 from the 21 run as a possible future gift for my brother as he had mentioned about wanting to get into whittling at some point.

I’m not really into these half-whittlers as I’m a full-whittler guy, but the yellow snow may be worth it for the button alone.

The yellow linen was a brighter yellow than had hoped - was hoping for closer to Case Delrin color. I’m still super happy with mine. The secondary was a bit lazy but a few flushings improved it greatly. Carried it for several days this week.

Had a lazy secondary on my Sawcut as well it’s gotten better but nowhere as snappy as even the recent 38 farmers

 

[Fox79]

Thanks for the replies on the 38 half whittlers.

I’m sad to hear about the lazy secondaries.

So far I scored a yellow snow and hopefully I made the cut on a reservation for one of JSR’s SFO’s.

Is it just the photo or is that shield a bit gappy?

 

[Will Power]

The Grinling Whittlers that I once had.....had very good snap on the secondaries both Tidioute in Greenbone and Northfield Chechen Rosewood. Same with the later English Whittler I still have. Yes, that shield does look gappy.

So the yellow dog is a special edition with a back label?

It does. I’ve been pretty disappointed with GEC’s shield cutouts lately. Lots of gaps in recent knives.

The Yankee Jack. One of my all time favorites.

Been seeing this most on their micarta, saw similar gaps on my micarta 93 and others I’ve seen posted. I wonder if it expands after being cut to make space for the shield?

Get ‘em while you can

 

[Elgatodeacero]

I sold off (or traded? Can’t recall….) my 93 Piasa bird knife from this dealer, that was a huge mistake!

Won’t happen this time!

Best blade etch ever.
