I'm mainly interested in selling but might consider trades for gec's. First post here followed by email/pm gets it. Thanks for looking :)


2007 GEC 73, primitive bone SOLD

Really like the knife, but its a bit too heavy for pocket carry for me.

Bought it secondhand but it looks like it's unsharpened, the edge is still a bit dull, and either unused or lightly used. I flushed it out with oil, but it could still use more of that. Haven't carried or cut anything with it.

There's some scuffing on the bolsters and cracks on the handle as you can see in the pics. I think cracks are pretty common on this handle material from the early gec runs, and are not always considered flaws BUT do your own research on this to be sure. GEC's production table only show a serialized run of 350. It looks like the previous owner may have polished the number off.

Pull is heavy, typical of early production GEC. I would say 7.5-8 but it honestly didn't bother me much. Snappy, crisp action & everything locks up like a vault.

2011 GEC Northfield 56 SOLD

Bought new. Carried maybe 6-8 times. Excellent condition. There is light scuffing on the bolsters and one small nick. See pics. Also significant patina from food prep, but I think it looks pretty good.

Overall, the best GEC specimen I've handled. No flaws of any kind that I could find. Fit & finish is more or less perfect. I'm selling to fund other gec purchases, but this Pull is maybe a 6.5-7 and no play of any kind.

2013 Case Carhartt Russlock, duck brown g-10 Withdrawn

Carried a couple of times and used lightly (opened a few packages and sharpened a pencil with it once). I'd love to get another one in a different pattern. Wanted to like the russlock but it just doesn't work for me. The blade on this one goes forward a little before it engages the liner like you sometimes see with traditional linerlock patterns.

It looks like there are gaps in the liner from the pics, but I can't see light through it. Maybe specific to this pattern.
