I REALLY like the little Mink. I got the fever alright--wish I had more cash! If the 56 is a 3 blade serpentine stockman 3 1/2 to four inches or so, I'll be knocking some cobwebs off the old wallet.

Gosh, where to start!

Those Yellow Roses are really nice, and that's coming from an Okie! (Actually, I just bought
a Yellow Rose Cattle Baron from Greg, at TSA, that was an EDC.)

Big Monk, that Northfield stag Rancher is awesome! I really like the swedge blade. I didn't think they
could top the Tidioute, but they did.

What a great time for Great Eastern Cutlery!

I've enjoyed following this thread also. 26 pages (so far) of some really great knives. ::tu::

Here's one I've had for a while, just never got around to taking pics. ::paranoid:: 2008 Great Eastern stamped #53 Cuban. 2nd cut stag, COA says only 24 produced. Blade is etched 'Factory Test Production Run'.

Don't see many stag with the Great Eastern tang stamp.

Wow Monk, there you go again! :shock: You and Gunstock Jack are spreading stag fever all over the place. Beautiful knives you've been showing. Are you carrying any of them?

I did order that half congress after I talked with you, I couldn't help it. :D It's kind of an odd pattern but it feels good in the hand and I like the sheeps foot primary blade. The two blade congress seems to be hard to come by and I couldn't resist a Northfield in stag. I'm going to carry this one.

It should be here tomorrow and I'll post a photo. ::nod::

Keep 'em coming guys! ::tu::

Both nickel silver bolsters

Now is the BABY SUNFISH the same as the SLEEVEBOARD ?? (both 3" 2 blades)
