Lets talk GEC!

[DaveHS]

I like the bead also!!

Thank you, Charlie! I had the bead before the knife. Was looking for a perfect pairing and I think I found it!

was looking to get something with horse cut jigging and what can be better than the 47 coming out of the sky View attachment 2948641

Sensational!

All the sevens 77.

 

[DaveHS]

88 + 81 CS

Based on the “down the hall” picture, I was surprised to see 92s come after the 42s……

Maybe the 66s are next?

Am I the only one who thinks the 92 is an odd knife? The frame just doesn’t do it for me.

To each his own, but I think it's classic and very ergonomic in hand.

i was disappointed with the anemic pull of the previous run in 2019 but it was a highly recommended pattern, hope this run has a decent pull

 

[Murphjd25]

Can’t say I am to enthused about the jigging and color. I might pull my name off the list from my dealer from one now.

i hope no etch either, but if the trend says otherwise, its time to buy fewer and fewer for me

Yeah, a run of 66 stockmans would be nice. Or some 35 Churchills.

Nice!

I very much like the shape of that spear over the one they have used in the last couple of runs. If they sported that older spear, I'd be a much bigger fan.

Agreed on the frame; it's pretty great and looks rather fine too.

 

[pmek5]

A great pattern.

I have been doing a lot of gardening and have been using my GEC Northfield Weaver Jack I paid about $80 for about 10 years ago. The main hybrid sheepsfoot/hawkbill blade is perfect for this. Out of curiosity I looked this up on eBay and was floored by the asking price for this pattern. I almost decided not to use it for gardening but then I remembered that these knives are made to be used as tools, although it now is the most expensive tool I own. I even tried using a few different harvesting knives, but keep coming back to this one because it is the perfect size for the task.

Looking forward to the 66's coming soon....little brother to the cattle knife

Love it! Use your tools!

View attachment 2940851I really like this pattern,would really like if they made the 62 maverick again which looks to be an interesting and usable knife,I don't see many pictures of them if any.

I never seen a 62 maverick before I found this one. It's quickly becoming a favorite of mine.

Going back to the first year of GEC, 2006!!!! The Scout!!!!
Bill was still sorting out his blade markings, but they were making great knives!!!

That is some unusual jigging there
