Nice Jack! Is it a big one, like a #54?

Thanks, Jeff. This one is a 2015 Indian River Jack, made by Queen on its 99 frame. So, more like a GEC 35 -- but slimmer, which I actually prefer.

These were a gift from a friend and member here he wanted to keep it private so I'm respectful of his wishes but would love to share the name of this incredible person.

USA made Buck in black micarta in mint condition with all the original packaging including leather sheath
GEC Tidioute 831121LB this knife is also mint in tube. Thank you again my friend just a spectacular gift.

Happy hump day!

It is a remarkable knife, extremely light and pocket friendly while still offering a decent amount of *very* sharp blade. I do wish the blade didn't rap on the lanyard tube, first thing I did after cutting some paper was slam it shut and put a huge ding into the edge. Due to the unusual design of the mechanism, it's especially hard to ease close and avoid that rap.

I have the same rap on my Livri. I ease it closed now, although it's not easy to do. The mechanism is bit different for sure. That said, I love the knife and it's as sharp as any knife I own.

We're going to a niece's house for Thanksgiving Dinner tomorrow. It'll be a bit frantic what with kids, dogs, and unruly kids and cats. At least the niece is a great cook.

We could be going to the same place, Ed! Minus the cats!
Hope your Doc visit goes well! Happy Thanksgiving!

That little micarta fixie is sweet

Gorgeous knives fellas.

Cloudy and chilly here today. Have a great day everyone!

Thank you, no I use carving knives mostly, they are easier on the hands with the amount of carving that I do. The 62 pocket carver is my go to pocket knife for carving and the 35 cattle knife is my everyday knife that is the best for carving.

Yeah I tend to prefer dedicated fixed whittle knives by far. Though the better I get at sharpening and or stropping I have been consider trying my small #62 pocket congress stag again. I can't seem to get my seahorse whittler into any kind of usable state. Not sure if it's me or a dud. Also that spine is so thick. Cheers.

A late start to the day here in the City by the Bay! There’s nothing like getting a phone call at 6:30 in the morning from your doc saying that you need to go to the ER immediately after seeing my blood test from yesterday. After getting an EKG and another blood test I’m good to go! Apparently the first test was a false positive for high potassium which is not good for your heart and kidneys. Needless to say I’m now quite happy! I grabbed the Harvey Special and little SAK for the adventure. Tomorrow will be an extra special thanksgiving and I hope everyone everywhere has one as well!

Family started arriving for Thanksgiving. Started a brisket early this morning so I could add it for the finishing touch on a big pot of Brunswick stew to keep everyone happy. 2# of bacon, 3# ground beef, 2# ground venison and 4# of brisket. Now it’s time to start opening bottles of wine and enjoying a house full of friends and family. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

62 pocket carver, not the congress works better for me. The seahorse is it a case? I can't get the stainless to hone very well on mine, it may be the carbides. I wish the would make one in cv or carbon steel. The GEC 38 English whittler on the other hand is a fine carver.
