Lets talk GEC!

I stand corrected, according to the GEC websites pattern release, it appears there was a run of 54s in 2017. I don’t see any reference to a 2023 run. E Elgatodeacero , how many versions were made in 2023? That single blade SFO is pretty sweet.

jmgruber jmgruber might be correct, but I remember 3 covers, ironwood, blue bone and plum jig? these were a very short run for DLT.

It will be interesting to see how the current 54 run compares to the 2014 run. I think 2014 was the last time we saw the 54 pattern? I picked this 2014 model up back when GEC knives sat on dealers’ shelves for months. Slanted, lined, pinched bolster with long pulls on a full sized spear and full sized clip blades. I have no desire to chase one of the new ones with this beauty in hand.

Outstanding piece! You sure that's a full size spear and not an oversized pen blade though? 😜

The DTL run sfos were done beside the 53E general run. There was also mammoth covers released at xmas that year.View attachment 3058404
I was fortunate enough to land a 54 sfo in 2023 and a 53E sfa in matching covers the following summer.

As long as you have both 53 and 54, what's the difference between the patterns? I always thought slanted bolsters, but I see they are both regular.
 
I'm pretty excited about the current run of 25s! I managed to order a green marrow bone model and am eager to see more pics of both the saw cut and marrow bone. The production photos look great.
