WOW sitflyer !!! ... don't think I've ever even seen a pocket assisted opener (what's the word for it?) like that that from GEC's Farm & Field Tool brand. NICE ... what year did they put that one out?

2017, it's a 350217, Nifebrite acrylic. It's a sweet knife.

Case - Bose collaborations.

Peregrin ... Hard to pick one, but the second from right "blows my skirt up" LOL ... if not one, it looks similar to a coffin pattern and don't see many

Not just that one, but you've got some of the nicest acrylic I've ever seen E. Very Nice

When MARBLES was MARBLES ... before I back away from the keyboard for the night
If folks keep posting, it'll be like waking to Christmas morning for my eyes when I check back tomorrow
Jody744 ... I already keep going back to look at that Spear Point Teardrop Mammoth Bark(?) ... Outstanding !!!

 

[black mamba]

I'm pretty sure that Marbles trapper was made by Queen. I have a jumbo stockman from that era, also Queen built.

Thanks Jeff, for the kind words, and for allowing me the pleasure of enjoying that wonderfully modded knife by your own hands it is one of my favorite GEC's that I actually carry and use. 735210...those were certainly interesting and mesmerizing times for GEC enthusiasts.

WOW! So much incredibleness shared in this thread. I love it. Just photo bomb knives, group shots, whatever. No rhyme or reason needed, just a spittoon to catch the drools LOL

I've never had a real Okapi, they always seemed to be sold out when I had the funds for one. Can't find any now.
I do have 4 or 5 KUDU, 3 or 4 from when they still had German 4116 KRUPP blades, and I think three of the slightly larger now discontinued ELAND.
KUDU or ELAND they work great in the kitchen.
They would probably work out in the boonies and the more remote sticks, but they kept falling out of my pocket, so I left them home.

Reel servicing with my cadet

Possibly, no definitely and without question, the best value fixed blade on the market.

And a custom made by our very own @nighthaxan

And a few 92s

WoW ... didn't realize Okapi were getting so hard to come by. Did a search and found one(1) site in Canada that supposedly has a few and another site with a few but not sure what country they are even in (prices were in dollars though). Neither site is on the B/F Paid Dealer Members List, so won't name them. I just had to keep clicking through the "Okapi" search results. Couldn't find any Okapi info as to why everyone is out of them and nothing on the official Okapi site indicates anything "amiss", so dunno. Guess I'll hold my Baby Sable and Genet slipjoints a little closer LOL. Could not find an Okapi locking knife ANYWHERE ... maybe on the Bay, but with a stupid outrageous price.
