All About Pocket Knives

Ryan ... that Lacewood custom is amazing, and the mirror-polished spear blade really enhances its appeal. Congrats on that one! I picked up a few from the recent run of Sawyers and I'm glad I was able to locate one in Soup Bone. I plan to rotate them all. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_fo...

I added a No. 6 and a No. 8 Slim to complement my other three. I keep them organized in this Maxpedition pouch and I find it very handy.

Count me in!

I have 3 ... a No. 7, No. 8 and a No. 9. I can't think of a better "go to" knife.

With the 4th of July right around the corner ... I chose to start my celebration early by showing my true colors! I crafted three different sheath patterns to compliment the knives. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=268&image_id=6195 http://www.allaboutp...

Thanks Monk!!!!

... and I was just admiring that gorgeous Elk on that 48 of yours ..... WOW!

Got the "big guns" in rotation now. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=268&image_id=6037 GEC 45 Grizzly Cut http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=268&image_id=6038 GEC 45 Frontier http://www.allaboutpocket...

Barry .... that cocobolo toothpick took me off guard ... VERY NICE!!! ::tu:: ((I wasn't aware GEC produced any in the #12 (must be a short run??).)) I stitched up the pouch for my #12 snakewood mainly for pocket protection. If I EDC a GEC, I always use a pouch ... and with other brands not so often.

Thanks all.

You guys sure pull all the stops when it comes to pickin' some real beauties!
The woods have really grown on me and this one arrived earlier in the week.

I'm with you Trand ...... Seeing everyone's display fueled my fire too! The woods do have a character all to themselves, and are a bit lighter in weight than the stag or bone. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=268&image_id=4638 http://www.allaboutpocketkn...

These came from GEC's first offering of Ben Hogans.



I've carried the Snake in the middle for quite a while and the blade has now developed a really dark patina.

HiPower ... as biglmbass said, you sure do have a fine display of Hogans! I took a liking to them too and have filled in with a few of my favorites as well. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=268&image_id=4636 They feel "just right" in the front...

This one in Garnet jigged bone is seeing the most pocket time lately.
I keep going back to the 65 for most chores. It seems to fill the bill for
just about every time I need to use a knife.

Here's one in Buffalo Horn that I stumbled on by chance. I didn't realize GEC was using these scales on the 65. Talk about a smooooth finish .... maybe a little too slippery for EDC but it'll get plenty of use indoors. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=268&am...

Monk,

That's an IMPRESSIVE collection!

It's always a pleasure to enjoy your posts & pics.

Thanks for all of the good comments guys. I don't consider my photos any nicer than the ones y'all are showing. And I sure can't compete with the likes of the subject matter .... them are some nice slippies everyone has ..... ..... and Mike, thanks for re-posting the video link on some of my leather...

Earl, Johnny, Trand, Monk and all you other folks have quite a collection! I need to sneak-a-peek a little less often to ease up on the wallet ... y'all are killin' me! Here's an Elk I couldn't resist (after viewing member photos here) and put it in immediate rotation. I love the size, weight and fe...

Hey Mike ... that pair of 72s have the best matched handles I've seen in the Elk. Can you discern any difference in the overall weight comparing the Elk to the bone handled 72s? I've been torn between the Ruby Red and the Elk Warnie ... and can only spring for one. These fellas are going so fast tha...

Monk ... very nice 72's

That red wine jigging is growing on me more and more. I was waiting for the Elk ... but it may need a roommate.

And, as always, your stag collection is incredible!

Beautiful collections from everyone!

I'm anxiously waiting for a peek at the new 72 Northfield w/spear blade. The Tidioute's are looking good!

Here are my most recent Mail Callers ........

Awesome pair of 33's Edge!!!

I hesitated on the #33 ... thinking it was too small for my liking. I'm toting it more now and the size and weight combination feels good.

Hey Blue, That whittler is a perfect pocket size too ... very nice! ::tu:: Not trying to be off topic, but I also love your natural bone Drop Point Fellow! I've been eyeballing one of those for a while now (I've got the stag & the WBB .... & would love to have one in natural & in yellow).

Trey, I purchased a Beer Barrel Trapper, Stockman and Canoe when they were first released. The "jigging" is not as deep or pronounced as what you'll see on a GEC jigged brazilian cherry or bubinga wood handle, but the Beer Barrel oak is very "grippy" and will not slip or shift li...

Edge .... we apparently are on the same wavelength! Nice pair you have there ......

This pair arrived today.
These whittlers are easier to open than the congress version so they'll see more pocket time.
