I did not appreciate them anough when it was still easier to get a hold of them several years ago myself. Let several sweet knives slip away when I shouldn’t have!
This one is a “2 Acorn Barlow”, 861121 from 2021. Has 440C blade and red and black micarta in layer for the covers. It is one of my favorite GECs I own. I have a small collection of specifically the 440C stainless bladed GECs. It’s a shame they don’t make more of them, but I understand they do it to keep their traditional machining in working condition, so I can’t get mad at them for it
If you want a traditional on the larger side that is still easy to carry, the 86 pattern is great. Slim, but still able to do a whole lot of work!
- thank you, both..!
...............hmm, am not a fan of BM (after what he did to the lovely Lone Wolf maker) but that Crooked River is a real stunnerMay have already posted this…comparison shot Buck 110 + Benchmade CR.

It’s a really nice knife. If I had to do it again would I get one ? …….noHow do you like that Rosie? They are far out of my price range, but I am curious how they stack up for action compared to others with which I am familiar, such as Chris Reeve. Is the blade grind nice and thin?
Beautiful little Northwoods Wharncliff sneaked in there too, Paul. Love those slanted bolsters!Sure, perhaps it looks daft and oversized, but this folding chef's knife is pretty good to take away weekends/camping etc when you're making sure you have something to properly help you prepare, chop and make dinner..!
