New GEC #14 Boys Knife

My first TC barlow. Really like the size of the 14's.

Anyone have a picture yet of a 14 next to a peanut. Curious to see how it compares.

Ended up keeping two single TCs. May pick up a double in regular 14 just cant decide which, antique yellow, nat canvas, ebony so many choices.
 
There's some nice variation in the darkness/color of the bone on the Antique Yellows. Can't wait to see what mine looks like when I get home and get the mail. :D
 
The ivory bone and red jigged bone are here. Both are very handsome. I have no disappointments. The first thing I noticed from the side profile is how the smooth bone version is much more rounded on the sides than the red jigged bone version which has more of a flat top. You can really see it in Joeradza's picture above.

Where is the shield on these 14's? Is this the first set of knives without shields that GEC has made?

What size CK pocket slip is that? Medium or small?

It's a Small Wide that fits the #14 according to CK. I just got off the phone with them. You might want to give a call just incase because when I ordered my #14 and at checkout they offer a slip "that fits" and it doesn't tell you the size.
 
My rust red was a bit too red for me, but that's just my personal taste. I just received an email notification that my ebony and antique jigged bone are shipping today. I'm so pumped about the ebony!

Regular Medium fits the 2-blade TC Barlow really nice. Probably work fine for the single blade as well.
 
Sort of like putting "beer scout knife" on a #15 instead of "beer scout" or "scout". ;) :D I'd be up for just the "scout" shield on the #14. :thumbup:
 
The black canvas singles are up for grabs. I'm looking forward to this one and an Oily Creek 2 blade.

All of the handle materials look great on the 14's. I could easily own them all. There aren't any duds in the group. I may have to get one more

Thanks! You're right and I'll probably just call them.

I usually like bone or wood covers, but at the price point I couldn't resist adding a Nifebright to my growing collection
