Lets talk GEC!

I've only been in the game long enough to see ONE SINGLE true stockman release by GEC, the 91 forum knife. If this is any indication of a calf roper, I will be trying my damnedest to get one in pocket!

I feel like I have achieved an impossible task! I just got an order confirmation for one of the #15 boys knives
Honestly, I had resigned to myself that I would probably never get one because they sell out so fast and I didn't want to pay secondary market prices for one.

Now we wait, and dream of starting that patina!!

Nice snag. Micarta or bocote?

Ah, the calf ropers will have soft pulls and everyone will complain. Funny thing though, you rarely see them on the secondary market. They are very useful however, this one has broken in nicely.

The porch is generous and I was lucky to score one lightly used at a decent secondary market price. I've since put it to use. They are very useful indeed! I wouldn't mind another!!

I could use one of those in my life Red Micarta, very effective! The Wood ones are superb but Wood tends to darken quickly and you lose grain, Bone offering looks very fine too, but Micarta is more 'drop proof'
