Thanks Jeff!!! The GEC 23 frame is a bit of a beast; 4 1/2" closed and 1 3/8" wide with 8+ pulls.Nice! Is the GEC/Schrade as massive as it looks? I like big knives...

Quite an excellent duo of trappers; I think the 43 has among the best blade profiles of the GEC lineup!GEC #43 Oregon Trapper (thanksChief !), and Case #6254 Trapper with a “Peabody Coal Co” blade etch.

Thank you Dean!!!Another pair o' neat knives; the bone on the GEC/Schrade is gorgeous.
Thanks Harvey!!! The fire fighters in So Cal have certainly saved the day a few times in areas I've resided!Thank you JJ. Two nice trappers. Much respect to the firefighters.


Your HHB looks majestic fanned out on that palm leaf, very cool shot!



A beauty of a jack Nick; i was drooling earlier on the "old knives" forum!



Those look awesome together David; not much you can't accomplish with those big fellers!![]()
Yesterday and today. Really liking the 97!



I'll bet your wonderful old Sheffield jack could write volumes; love it when the old guys are still sharp!



What a cool find; an old Imperial Barlow is a classic piece of family history!Anyways, it’s just nice to think that my grandfather was with us for our first two-wheeled ride.

Thanks Gary!!! Apparently Burnt Chimney were made by Boker mostly for a pharmacy owner in NC named Marshall Hardin to sell to his customers cir. 1980s-90s.Another "time warp" pair, JJ!I don't think I've run across Burnt Chimney before; cool tang stamp!
Was that once a Böker "line" or did Böker make them for someone else?

Thank you again for your kind words!!!My Goodness, there's "acres" of jaw-dropping jigged bone on that Schrade trapper!![]()
Excellent foursome you put together for today's totes! Very cool bone on your sowbelly; I just ordered a Black Alox a few hours ago!Alox SAK this week is a black Pioneer:
