It's the first GEC I've been excited for in a while. I'm not sure if GEC have done bone stag before?Nice, thanks!
The bone stag looks fantastic, GEC needs to bring back the colors too.GEC have done bone stag before . . . and in colors, too!

Pretty sure that's right, Barry. Those were all from 2009 or earlier.Those early 53s in bone stag were done with Culpepper bone AFAIK.
Traditionals with a liner lock have a normal backspring as well? News for me. Never handled one and always thought they only have some kind of stopping bit, or at least a thin nominal spring. Guess having both lock and a backspring is not a redundancy, eh?Here's another GEC Bonestag a 73 from 2008 makes a very fine work-knife as not only is it strongly sprung but has liner lock too for extra safety when tackling say thick grippy plastics.
