Stamped blade GECs?

[Norcaldude]

What patterns and years did GEC stamp the blades? I've seen a few floating around with UN-X-LD blade stamps, a 36 and a 72 (I think) and they look pretty neat.

(Feel free to post some pictures if you have one)

I once had a 25. 253115 with Sawcut scales. Couldn’t find a pic of it.

My 72 lockback (721114LB)
And my 83 lockback (831115LB)
Both have stamped blades

ETA: my old Bullnose (715113) and beer scout with cap lifter (don’t remember model number/year) were also both stamped blades.

How do you identify stamped blades? It looks like all the edges on the above #25 are a little softer/rounded...

Instead of etching the billboard it is embossed (stamped)

First run of tc ancients had a stamped guild mark . Second run was etched

They had issues with the stamp deforming the blade, didn't they?

I believe so

Got it, Thanks.
After reading about stamped vs cut swedges... I thought maybe the entire blade might be stamped to its final form

I like those (glass?) candies. They make a nice backdrop for the knife photo.
