My spy has managed to slip into GEC, and has hit paydirt!!

Remind you of some old Bradford knives?? You know - the ones with XX's on them??

Wish they would hurry up!!

Charlie those bone handled HJs are too much. Who is going to have these, I want one before they're all gone.

Just a reminder: please don't discuss buying/selling knives in this thread. I believe the goal is to keep these threads from becoming commercial.
Any inquiries should be e-mailed to me.

GEC had a few pieces of pre-ban Ivory left from the tusk they got from me.
Here are most of them.
They look somewhat like their Primitive bone until you get them in your hand, then they have a special glow. 8)

The bad news is, the long weekend held up delivery of the Redbones!
The good news is, I have confirmed delivery, so all knives board the planes tomorrow A.M!
USPS - 3 days max, they tell me!
Thanks for your patience!

I received my Harness Jack Thursday and finally got a chance to take some pics. This knife with the red jigged bone is just what an old style harness jack should look like. The fit and finish is perfect GEC did a great job on these, thanks Charlie.

Thanks for the pics and the kind words, Bill!
I'm at Oregon, and My email isn't working (sigh), so I'll talk to everyone when I am back.
Dale Orvet is here, and who comes dancing out of the crowd, but singin' Perry!!
Couldn't stand the thought of not being here, bought a last minute ticket, and found himself one whale of a deal on a knife, so far! Nice to meet him in person!
Much more when I get back!

Nice meeting you too, Perry! Glad you enjoyed yourself. I always feel it is over too soon!
So many knives, so little time (so little money! :roll: )
We all wish we had a few more bucks amidst such a bounty!!
Can't wait to see your pics, Perry!
