I'm looking for a trade for this GEC Tidioute 53 Furtaker Muskrat in Antique Green Bone with Serial Number 02, 1 of 50 produced.
The fit and finish on this one is perfect. Nice walk and talk, nicely jigged and matched bone, stout pull but not a nailbreaker, no gaps, and perfectly centered blades. Its a big sturdy knife that would be better used in the field by a hunter. There is patina on the main clip and a bit as well on the wharncliff and backspring. There are some carry scuffs on the bolsters as well. Note: I wanted the wharnie to sit a little lower and more comfortably so I filed down the tang a bit and the very tip of the blade now rests on the spring. I put a thin strip of leather down in the well and close it gently and dont have any problems, but I'd say its a user at this point. Comes with original tube and serial number certificate.
Looking to trade for any of the following (mainly knives 3.5" or under)
- 66 calf roper jack, stockman, slim pen, or Teamster Jack
- 68 white owl or pony jack
- 2 blade #15 boys knife preferably in bone with longpull clip main
- GEC toothpicks
- #85
- #33 conductor
Open to other offers just send me an email or PM.
Thanks
