There’s a lot to take in here. Old monkey wrenches are cool.
That Empire is quite the collector’s item. As will be the GEC in a hundred years.
Holy smokes, that is an absolute gem. Truly grail level. I've wanted something from Don for a really long time.
I’m not too big in multi-blade traditional’s and still don’t own one with more than two blades but wow, that is quite the looker!!! Stunning blade, what pattern is it?
That’s a mighty fine knife-Peter

This is the first real traditional knife/Slipjoint I purchased back in January 2020 and it’s a knife that will forever be the one that started it all for me in this traditional knife hobby. I don’t use it or carry it as much anymore because I have so many now but it’s great to get it out every now and then. Looking forward to getting my Bunny Knife and seeing what 2023 has in store for us from GEC!

Lovely old Remington, Dwight.

Nice shot of the patina and sharpened edge. Is this a 2137, or 2138? Proportionally, I’m guessing full size…
Now there’s a proud Papa. Or do they call you Opa?
Grand daughters can sure melt the heart, can’t they?
This is an outrage. Do you know how many knives could have been hafted with that ebony?
Quite a dapper combo, Mitch.
I could be happy with that pair, my friend.
Fine use of the lighting in your photography, JoeyAnd fine totes.
You sent me off on daydreams of warm, white sand beaches.
I hope you remembered to protect your pasty white English skin from that near equatorial sun, my friend!
Speaking of fine photography…
Sweet pair, Bob! Functionally the same as Harry’s.
You’re not alone, but it looks like you have your knife needs well covered.
I do not envy our faithful Spark having to pack and mail all those rabbit knives. And one way to look at it is that we should be getting the higher serial numbers, meaning later production. Like buying a new Chevy ~ never buy the first year of a new model. Let them work all the bugs out on those low serial numbers!
You know, the very first thought I had seeing your picture was Don’t Do It!
Probably from watching James Garner/Rockford Files last night where he cut a valve stem to stop the mobsters from tailing him…
Can’t speak for everybody else, but my breath is bated!
I vote the P’nut.
And now you know why your Wife always tells you to shut the door, Vince!
Great to see you back from your wonderful vacation, Jack; it's always a treat to see your trusty Hartshead slicer, too!First time I've posted here in over a week, as I spent Christmas in FuerteventuraI hope everyone had a good one

I have the week off from work, so I decided to build a guitar effect pedal with a favorite stag in my pocket, Puma Bantam:
