Re: GEC NEW PATTERNS
Still waiting for the GEC corkscrew to be created.
I got a bottle of wine ready for the occasion.

Re: info needed
I think it may be easier for us Canadians to say Tidioute.
It's sort of like how we say out and about(oot and aboot).

Re: GEC Woodies
Yeah, this huge cocobolo whaler is a work of art for sure boggs. After oiling the joints,boggs wrote:Slipjointed......
I know what you mean..not only a cool knife but great figuring in the wood too.............
it's a real smooth operator and fits great in the hand. Reminds me of a small machete.

Re: Ever seen one like this???
Phil, thanks for your input. I took a chance on this one off Epay. Until it arrives, I'm not sure about the inner workings. It's definitely not a pretty thing, but kind of interesting all the same. https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=267&image_id=3795&...

Re: character flaws...
Yes, those are definitely something special alright. I'm always on the lookout for
something a bit different or unique, and was just wondering if I'm the only one.

character flaws...
What's your take on bone or stag GEC's that have something different about them
like a natural scar, a bit of a mismatched scale, veiny lines, etc?
And why don't I ever see a used one for sale?

stranded on an island...
::hmm:: Not sure why it would happen, but if you could only keep one GEC knife from your collection, you would probably choose... Myself, I'd go with this #36 sunfish because even if the blades broke off, I could still use the darn thing as a hammer or even an oar for my raft ~ http://www.hollerin.c...

Re: GEC PROTOTYPE KNIVES
The GEC prototype I have happens to be the one and only hemlock green bone Tidioute sunfish produced in 2009. They've also switched to all steel after this particular knife. I really don't think about value, as I find it cool to just own a piece of GEC history. http://www.hollerin.com/images/hemloc...
