Got my first GEC 77 Barlow. Stoked!

You guys are getting some beauty’s !

Just received a stag #81 bull moose, and did a couple mods to both blades.
Reground the spear into more of a drop point, and the clip into a large sheepfoot.

 

[Railsplitter]

Great mods, Jeff! They both look great and that Sheepsfoot is a whopper!

#73 arrived yesterday, #77 today. The barlow is nice but awful hard to beat a drop point #73 dressed in a nice stag suit....

Lovely stag on that one.

My latest acquisitions. I love that they have the same blade configurations, just different blades besides the sheep's foot.

A.G. Russell 110. I wasn't expecting it to be as nice as it is. Made in the 80's,

it's a sweety.

Thanks, Rick, much appreciated!

Those are three fine specimens, Gary!

...
Nice Spring Spree! Is that the single blade Teardrop?

Thanks, Joshua & Rachel. The teardrop IS a single blade. I wanted the wharncliffe main, and all of the current 2-blade teardrops from Case are spear/pen combos. (I also wanted chestnut jigged bone CV, and that comes with 1 blade.)
(I apologize for the delay in my acknowledgement of your support. )

I am happy to get a 77 Barlow, but it's just so bright! I don't know if I can get used to it.

Tracy LaRock custom from Mr. Krein himself. Linerless green micarta and it is super light.

Well it's certainly not not bright, but it looks like a nice color. Better than the faded pink it could have been (in my opinion, of course).

Yeah, it is a pretty color, I was just surprised at how it looks outside in the sunlight. Kinda like Jolly Ranchers watermelon candy! I wonder what a tea bath would do to mellow out the brightness...

Thanks GT, nice to hear from you.

Another newish one, Moki Kronos 533. F&F is par excellence, only matched in my folder collection by one other, a Moki Serapis. Pull is a bit light, I'll give it a 4, but oh so buttery smooth. I hadn't been considering it but was intrigued by a recent thread on lockbacks (@BP_ ) where it was mentioned.


BP, you had wondered about how this knife might hold up as a long term EDC. I obviously can't say for sure, but suspect the weak pull could be it's Achilles tendon as it may weaken over the years. Otherwise it's very sturdy, not a bit of blade play and solid covers.

Edit I just pulled out the Kronos and noticed it has six, count em, six pins. Now that's sturdy

 

[Bugdoc]

Thought I’d mix it up a little and since Queen is no more I just ordered a #44 hunter in Amber carved stag bone D2 steel

Really nice catch I recently have come to appreciate sunk joints.

 

[TheFactor]

It’s arrived and very impressed !
