Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
Here is my Big Jack EDC, carrying for about 8 months now. I just put a forced patina on her and I must say...I am in love all over again. I almost hated the carbon steel because of maintenance. The forced patina WILL NOT RUST. It looks like the flange area on a Harley, after its been heated and cooled...about 10 different colors in the sun. Black as night in normal light and inside.
50/50 lemon juice and water over night. DO NOT SUBMERGE YOUR KNIFE. It will ruin handles made of natural materials (stag, wood, none etc).

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
I like the looks of that, TA. I keep telling myself I'm going to try that sometime to one of mine. Did you do the backsprings?

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
The back springs are solid black just from everyday use. I think its a great way to stop worrying about staining your EDC. Its not reversible unless you re-polish so think ling and hard. Thanks for looking! See yall on the Grid iron in a few weeks

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
Trand -- You must be special. GEC isn't even showing the #74 on their website as being released. Congratulations. Love that Wharncliffe.

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
Thanks Gino.
I'm not that special Jerry The ones on (or will be) GEC's website are (will be) #74ECs. They're based on the 2012 Bladeforums knife I posted.
(If its bad form posting another forum's knife, let me know and I'll edit.)

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
On pages 8 and 9 (maybe 10 or 11) Trevor showed this 85:
I do not know why he felt I should have it but from the bottom of my heart I say THANK YOU!
I got this 72 Scout in a trade for a Case Yellow Trapper CV and we each think we got the better deal!
The 85 is now a right front pocket staple. The 72 doesn't get carried all that much.

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
I have a question for the GEC knowitalls.... Did they do or will they do any Ebony 76?
I might have to settle for Chestnut Jigged Bone, but I think Ebony would be it!

Great shots Dave, I don't think they have and don't know when they might or not.

Re: Is your EDC a GEC?
Yeah, I saw that at Collectorsknives.net
It IS black....
But I think the subdued black of Ebony is what is called for.
But who am I kidding? With my job being what it is probably no buy it myself GEC in the works.
