Seeking Input for a replacement

[MadMaximus]

So I recently lost my GEC Bullnose #71 over the side of a submarine. It was my favorite slip joint and I can't find them anywhere. I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a place where I could score one. I put something up in the want adds (with not much response), but I'm looking for anywhere to get one and I'd like to get a new one if possible, hopefully in OD micarta like I had. Thanks for your input!

I'm always looking for affordable reputable knife dealers to give my future business to!

Sorry to hear of your loss.
The best I can recommend is to go the GEC website. It has a list of GEC dealers. You could do a full search that way.

The other thing to do is to keep an eye on the exchange here on BF. These things do pop up from time to time.

Here's a couple of places I've bought GEC knives from, hope it's OK to link these here:

In your situation, I'd have a Salt folder.
