Decided on the GEC 54 Jack today while working in the yard. Headed to the 5th Ave Theater tonight with my wife, so I'll need to figure out a slack carry knife...maybe a AG reverse congress with black lip pearl...?

Thanks Dean
Thanks for those photos Primble, always wondered how that rest worked for pinning, building or modifying knives
Tim - Thank you friend!
Sweet indeed, I see why so many enjoy the LC pattern now.
Today's carry for stag Saturday_

Beautiful Old Timer and Watch ! :thumbup:
Nice Charlow, BTW !! :thumbup::thumbup:
I got it finished without incident. I have peened proud pins with loose shields many times before, so I kinda knew how to peck the pin. I am happy with the new look of the old knife. The shield came off of an old New York knife that had missing bone on the mark side and had been laying in a drawer for more than a year.
and just in case Mark stops by and says my first inlayed and pinned shield is crooked or something:

Primble - It appears to me that I may have someone new to send my old basket cases to!
:thumbup:Nice Stag Jack Ron.
Bob - Thanks buddy. I got this Stag Jack from one of my best friends.
That is a nice HJ there my friend.:thumbup:

I've neglected this one, and I regret it.
Sharpened it up and it took a very good edge, thinnish edges make it a nice slicer. I like the bone on these Tidioute Eurekas, the pin-work is excellent (no ghastly sink-holes..) and having quite a narrow handle and 4 pins means the pattern doesn't need a shield really. The backspring is so well finished you cannot feel any divisions, it's smooth like one lump of steel. Not a hint of a gap! Brass free zone is another positive....
I'd like to get a single-spear Talon, I had a Wharncliffe version but never really liked it so I sold it, but a single Spear, that's different.
I have a feeling this knife must see some more carry, I just think it's on of GEC's best Jacks.
Thanks, Will.

In mathematics, 6 is considered a "perfect number" because it's equal to the sum of its proper divisors (1+2+3=6). So I'd certainly say you're carrying a perfect number of knives, Sarah!!Meanwhile, knowing I have a dirty-ish job to finish, I didn't empty the pockets of yesterday's now-dirty-ish pants; out we go again:
Full disclosure: there are enough pocketses in these sturdy work pants, I also have these along...
... and, um, the middle knife, a rosewood #38 whittler:
~ P.
Well... I couldn't exactly carry the 8" North Arm chef's knife!
However, once on the move I dicovered my micarta Scout in my coat pocket. Ta da-- 6!
Lots of preciouses with you today! I imagine you could do some real damage in the yard with a pair of cargo pants and some suspenders.
Oh, you know it! Or overalls, as the case may be.
Just looking through pictures to grab the ones I did, I was all, "Tascosas! I need to pocket a Tascosa or two!," and came very close to snagging the blue Northwoods as well, to keep the #38 trio intact. 
The bottom line being, I sure do love my knives.
