Golden Ale & Goldenrod

Good looking pair! I'm not sure which is which, but the one in front/right looks like a great knife...

A pair of Ironwoods

Very nicely figured wood.

Thanks! The one in back is the 2016 Beer Scout in Golden Ale Jig Bone. I think they just used their regular old Goldenrod, like on the 25 Barlow in front, but they turned it into a more beer-related description.

Atiger and rdave , those are some gorgeous knives. I'm trepidatious about posting my pair of mixed mutts.

Couple more interesting pairs...

Pattern 55 Swayback. GEC calls it "Hound Tooth". As members have noted a takeoff of Dogleg. And the 56 is the reverse dogleg.
I think the arrowhead shield looks fantastic on this pattern.

Yes, a really notable 55 pair.

I have the Tidioute Houndstooth but without the liner-lock, a fine useful size too. Can't understand why GEC has failed to do another run of these and they could usefully offer a Barehead option too.


Thanks, Will

Thanks Will
When GEC does get around to another run of 55s, they will fly off the shelves.

I first thought of making the analogy that these folders are cousins.... but its actually across the generations
of Shrade Stockmans. (ie., pa, grandpa & great grandpa)....

So first is grandpa (Schrade Walden) № 879 & great grandpa (Schrade Cutlery Co.) № 8803G

....and then there's great grandpa (Schrade Cutlery Co.) № 8803G & pa (Canal St. Cut.) SKU № 3159328.

’til later….

"Everlasting Sharp" means…. never having a dull moment.
