Got my Northfield #92 Talon Wharncliffe with Moss Green Bone from Collector Knives today.

I can only say... Wow! :thumbup:

This knife is like something from a jeweler, it's so pretty. I'm already looking for my next one. What have you people hooked me on? :eek:
 
Beautiful! Congrats to you on your first Northfield/GEC. I've been so very impressed with all my GEC's in the past year now since I "discovered" them while browsing here on BF. The quality is outstanding and the retro beauty of yesteryear has a very strong appeal.
 
That green is really striking. Love my #15 Radio Jack in Blood Red Bone. But that green! GEC makes a nice knife and yours is very nice indeed.
 
This is in many ways my first traditional. I had a Boy Scout knife when I was a kid and carried a small plastic handled Old Timer stockman for years (without even knowing that style was called a "stockman") but lost that years ago and started carrying Spydercos and Benchmades. It was coming to this forum that acquainted me with the world of traditionals. I still like my moderns OK, but these are just so elegant.
 
Forgot may PW for imgur. Just remembered so here is a pic.

I am know shopping for a green bone GEC. Thanks a lot :D
 
SCWillson,
You got a GREAT LOOKING FOLDER, the color is BEAUTIFUL.
NICE, NICE, NICE.
G.E.C. makes an IMPRESSIVE KNIFE.
 
Congrats on the new knife. The bone on yours looks great. I bought my first GEC about a year ago. It was my first traditional other than various Swiss Army knives. Since then, they've been accumulating rapidly!
 
Good first choice. No doubt you will truly enjoy it. Hate to say, but it will be the first of many. :)
 
That green bone looks amazing. As others have said these GECs have a habit of multiplying quite rapidly. You will most likely have an empty wallet and a pocket full of sweet knives within a couple weeks :cool:

Click to expand...

Yeah. Paying rent and eating is SO overrated. ;)
 
Beautiful knife. I almost pulled the trigger on that same model but am holding off for now. Dunno how long I can resist after seeing your pics!
 
Great looking knife! Congratz on that fine piece of cutlery!

Well - it seems we got another one catched in the depth or traditional fine cutlery disease. The only cure: Get more of 'em (the only thing that will help)... your poor wallett! ;) :p
 
Great looking knife, my #92 Talon just showed up in the mail this week, I choose the OD green linen micarta and am loving the lines and how it feels in hand.

Not long after a #92 Eureka Jack in autumn gold jigged bone popped up for sale here on the forums, and I had to grab it, been wanting one for over a year!

Welcome to the sickness. :cool:
