I think those Olive Wood covers are sensational. Beautiful knife.

Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
Keep reading on other threads how the price of GECs will come down next year. Not. Here's some proof. Bought one in 2015 for $78. Now they are going for a bit more than a 300% increase in value and still climbing. And they ain't making any more of this year's run. Thanks a billion and big plug to 3Finger Mac for letting this baby go and making my whole week. He's been selling a few and they sell in 2 minutes. Demand is growing and growing. Thanks again 3F Mac. I love the old GEC lock up and spring tention. Zero wobble and not a nail breaker, but maybe a nail chipper. Love springs like that, feels solid and heavy duty unlike more recent iterations. Thanks again 3FM.

Cool shield!

Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
Great looking knife. Love the bare head, the elephant shield, the sheep foot, have never seen that pattern done like this. Beautiful.

Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
Another 3FingerMac special. Check his stuff out, has some great knives. Thanks 3FM. Appreciate the service and products.
Northfield 252213 ECJ with Amber jigged bones. Don't know what the ECJ means (maybe Easy Carry Jack?) if anyone does let me know, I'd appreciate it. Whatever it means it's a great little piece from a decade ago with my kind of color and spear, like the long pull and pinched bolsters too. And that the secondary is not just another pen. Love these older ones with more stout springs. Great snap.

I love those toe nail clippers, have the ebony and the indian ivory side X side hoping they make a calf!
Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
Looooooooove a good 77 and a good Barlow. Here's two in one. I just couldn't quit fixating on it after DM posted his.

Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
I also like the #77. The Northfield #77 with a Warncliffe blade is probably my all-time favorite GEC pattern. Had one with stag handle once-upon-a-time years ago, but sold it (wish I hadn't, but I had my reasons at the time. )
Here are my newest GEC acquisitions:

Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
Wow Q, those pics of the Elk are even better than the others I saw you post. Good photog skills. Great looking knives. Love that 25. Nice score and kudos to you for finding such a beauty. Getting harder to find all the time.

Re: Mail Call, Post Your New GECs.
Mahalo Ivoryman...wish my photog skills were more consistent...I had a hard time getting the stag on my new #77 to look good in pics; although, to be fair, the weather/light was not cooperating today and my little old Olympus camera was being a bit temperamental also. Oh, well, I'm sure you've seen many similar ones before, so this is nothing new (except to me, of course!)
