A lot of nice customs have been posted. I can't get enough of that Bose stockman. I haven't seen that Burke Swayback before -- it is super cool.

My first... and (at present) my only knife with micarta

GEC Calf Roper

Really nice Calf-Roper Jake!
I haven't seen many GEC's in micarta before but I know there are some out there.

Camco (Camilus off shore) made a Micartra layered with thin copper sheets and has a very special effect of grain like the RR

Thank you, Corey. Btw, today I got to use the Calf Roper to open the box containing my new Swayback Jack.

Wow - there're some real knockouts in this thread. Nice photos, too.

No longer mine, but nonetheless a decent photo.

Ray Laconico. He also made that big green sucker in the bad picture with the swayback. He started off making fixed blades (that group of 4 I posted in this thread), then made slipjoints for several months, then moved onto liner locks. I'm bummed he won't make many more slipjoints. They are great and tough as hell. He makes them for the "outdoors" crowd. They are big, beefy and unbreakable.

And every time he has one up for sale, I'm always late. I'll score one of these days.

Is that a Great Eastern #73 Scout with 440C blades and Black Micarta scales? Man, did I ever miss the boat on that one. That is one sweet looking knife. Thanks for showing it.

richstag · Jul 14, 2011

Nice knives, I don't have any traditional knives with micarta but I love the material for use. I may have to find one to try for myself. Thanks for all the great pictures

No problem Wayne. Its a 2007 Midnight Black Micarta, 35 of 82. I missed this release as well but found someone who was willing to part with theirs.
