The #56 is very similar in shape to the peanut, and many are still available. They do have a spear main, but could always be reground to a clip.

Thanks, traum, it's only photoshopped, but I still might do it for real.
Any photos of this mod?I did the clip mod on my 56, was easy and worked out great. If you can live with a spear, the GEC Beagle might be of interest, I’ve got the Coyote and it’s nice but small for me. GEC 14 might be what you're after, either by modding the spear or waiting for them to do a run with clip point, I read in another thread that this was coming soon...
I’ve tried posting pics here many times, using different image hosts. Never works, gave up. If your on Fb, I’ve got pics up in Jimbos knife fam and Slipjoint army.Any photos of this mod?
I’ve done the clip mod, considered the coping but the position of the nick and where the belly starts would require almost a 90 degree chop or a healthy bit of grinding to bring the whole edge up to eliminate the curve.Oh, hahahaha! Well, you could cope that secondary, too![]()
Is this a Queen or Case knife? I like it!Great idea! The No.26 Stockman is compact, low riding blades, long Clip and it's like a 3 bladed Penknife but without bulk. Best Small Stockman ever in my book. GEC still haven't got small knives right, apart from the 33 which they never re-issue...The 22, 09, 18 are nicely made yes, but just too toy like - and I have quite small hands so if I find it toy like....also, the Coyote has Wharncliffe master and I feel the OP is after a Clip. Buck's 309 should be considered too, they do a decent stainless.
