SOLD///GEC #42 Missouri Trader in African Blackwood - SOLD///$79 shipped - New in tube, never carried or used, only taken out of tube for inspection. Nice dark wood with just faint hints of very dark brown. Great fit and finish and a fine knife, but if I'm going to scrutinize it and be picky, there is one very small inclusion in the wood as shown in the 2nd, 5th and 6th pictures below. Blade also seems to have very faint swirls if I get a glare on it at certain angles. Both of these are not easily noticed unless you're looking for them. This one has the very slight vertical blade play common with most GEC lockbacks. It's very slight so I don't think it would be noticeable while using the knife.
SOLD///GEC #73 Scout in Cocobolo - SOLD///$69 shipped - New in tube, never carried or used, only taken out of tube for inspection. Prominent straight grain and orange-ish red wood. I don't think it's quite as orange as it appears in the pictures though. Out of the three 73s I have had, this one has the easiest pull. It's still probably a 6, maybe 7 but it feels noticeably easier than the other two. Solid lockup. Great fit and finish and a fine knife.
