I see why Kamagong, great stag, great patina on a great blade.
Scott, like the cord weave, how many feet long is one like that? Cool.

After getting my 21st GEC , a Che Chin Rosewood 64 , I'm finally carrying one. I always figured they were too nice to use. ::woot:: This is now my EDC back pocket knife. I got a stag one too to keep under glass. 8)

Thanks, Phil ... I don't really have a favorite, as I like em' all for different reasons (size, blade config., etc ...)

They are all great user knives though ::tu::

I have a question...I'm wondering why the polished blades seen to be in better shape than the satin finished ?

Both knives were used pretty much the same way, every day chores home and work, got wet and forgot about for a while... ::facepalm::...been using them for 4 to 5 years. Clean them in hot water and dry off, sometimes a little oil on the blades.

Same old 2014 Viper, but new bead and thong. Probably my favorite GEC EDC.

Some where I have read that the slicker the finish the slower that rust forms. I guess the lowest places are holding material that promotes rust.
Just my opinion, but it makes sense to me.

I've been pocketing a few others but keep going back to this one to carry. I like the smooth and easy pull and solid lock up when opened, plus I just flat out love the look of the African Blackwood against the silver bolster and shield.

sunknife,
That is a sweet knife ::tu:: I have never had a wood scale knife, so i just ordered the 13 Clerk with Gabon Ebony scales. It should be here Friday.
Today I'll use this combo.

j1890,
I bet that #13 will look good in ebony and will feel good in the hand too, be sure to post some pics. I love my bone and stag knives but the wood scaled ones do seem warmer to the touch to me. Of course that didn't keep me from packing a jig bone knife along with the wood one to work today. :D

The GECs that have made it into my EDC rotation thus far:

The AAPK #74 pictured here is a factory second with no blemishes that I could find which was purchased specifically for EDC duty. I love carrying this knife.

Man some gorgeous knives being displayed above, makes me want them all. :D

I'm leaving the house in a few and gonna make it a GEC day. Couldn't decide on a drop point or clip blade, good thing pants come with multiple pockets.
Would love to strap the hatchet to my belt as well but may not be looked upon favorably by others in town. :(
