What GEC pattern would you like to see?

[Foilist]

I wonder if any of those GEC guys in Titusville, PA are reading this . . .

The more I think about it, the more I think a scout pattern would be doable. They could adapt their existing harness jack by adding the can and bottle openers.

Oooh! I'm late to the game, but I want to play, too!

I've been thinking about this very question for the last week. What I'd dearly love to see is something that's not been mentioned:

A full-sized, lockback knife.

Think Buck 112 stretched to 110 dimensions. It'd have steel or nickel silver bolsters, bone scales, a 1095 blade, and the front bolster shaped into a finger guard. I'd love to see such a knife produced.

The 110 has no finger guard of any kind. It has stainless steel blade offerings. The 112 is too small for my taste and has stainless steel blade options. Boker makes lockbacks, but their blades are too short. Case's lockbacks have small, stainless blades. The Queen Mountain Man is as close as I've found, but the front bolster offers no protection of any kind from finger slippage.

Who's with me on this? Let's start a full-sized Lockback Revolution!

I'm changing my vote.

Thanks to Pappy for posting these images. What a cool knife!

Two come to mind:

A full-sized 4 1/4" 5-blade serpentine stockman (sowbelly), and a full-sized gunboat.

I would like to see a 4 to 4 1/4" Humpback Lockback, with a long pull swedged blade. blade steel and scale choices up to GEC....

 

[joe-bob]

A big lockback would be cool, so would a gunboat. I'd like to see them make something different than they are now...a cotton sampler, saddlehorn...i dunno.

Also, I think the #23 Pioneer would be cool with a spear and a wharncliff bade.

 

[Esav Benyamin]

Yes! A cotton sampler and saddlehorn would make my day.

Something between the 3" barlow/jack and their 3 3/4" Scout .

Easy on the pocket size.
3 1/2"
Dogleg jack, Texas Jack, or Serpentine Stockman

I actually do not see GEC going more pockable.
Even the 3" are handfulls (tanks)
So I do not imagine a 3 1/2" knife from them as small

+1 here
