Lets talk GEC!

Been hunting for this one for a long time. Glad to bring it home!

Nice score!! I love the Radio jacks, I only need an antique yellow to complete my collection. I've been hunting one for years. :(
 
Ebony is one of my favorite scale covers and that radio jack is fantastic execution of an ebony bare head jack. I love that clip point blade as well.
 
Thanks fellas! I need antique yellow and nifebrite and i think that will complete my set. Hopefully before i kick the bucket ;)

Nice, knife! ...btw...You beat me to that one ;)

This combination is one of my favorites. I like the clip blade better than the spear since GEC does a better job with the taper on clip blades... not sure why. Hopefully they'll do more runs. A run in stainless with the acorn shield would be cool. They could run some more single clip blade SS boys knives at the same time. They went fast!

Thanks! I sure was in the right place at the right time for this puppy. Yes the clip 15 is tough to beat, paired with the caplifter its quite the useful combo. Those SS 15's vanished like lightning. I wonder if any surprises are in store for us 15 lovers when GEC runs the beer scouts. Maybe a run of TC barlows?!?

What is the difference between the "Crown Lifter" and the "Radio" besides the etch? Was one an SFO?

Crown lifters have a long pull. The radio's like in my pic came before the crown lifters. There are Radio Jack SFO's, but those are Northfields and have a diamond shield (Charlie C).

If I remember correctly the Radio clips were first. When the Radio Diamond Jacks (SFO) came out the Caplifter etch was used for the regular run knives. The later long pull clip blade run also used the Caplifter etch. I could be wrong and don't mind being corrected.

Oh btw, nice Electrician.
 
I got into GEC just in time to miss the crown lifters and electricians. Like you said southpaw, maybe we'll get some kind of surprise on this 15 run.

Thanks. I bought one at a show a few years ago, but didn't know where it fit in the production sequence.

It's my party knife. :)
 
Southpaw, WONDERFUL score my friend!!! I had the Red Radio Jack, sold it, dumb move, check:o

Had the Crown lifter, same as Rachael, sold it, dumb move, check:p

But the one I most sought is your ebony, glad you got it, enjoy that wonderful knife. I always like to see good people with good knives:cool:
