Anybody got a 56 sambar stag?
Anybody got a 56 sambar stag?
I have one on the way. How’s the pull and the quality? Post up some pictures if you have some.

I don't have one, but I hope it meets your standards.
I've always thought it a little late to ask about the quality of a knife AFTER you've already ordered.
I've found folks here more than happy to share their thoughts on a knife.

I’m sure it will meet my expectations Steve. It’s tough for me to get to handle a GEC before I buy it since there are no dealers close. If it’s anything like the 43’s and 46’s it will be awsome!

LSS152, here's one that I have and I love the way they look. I was a little disappointed with the action on the 56. Mine has a very long dead area between the open and close snap which doesn't really affect the operation of the knife it's just something that kinda bugs me. I wish it had half stops like the 78.

Re: Anybody got a 56 sambar stag?
I have a stag 56 from a few years back with a clip blade, GREAT knife, firm pull, at least a '6' on 1 to 10 scale.
I had one of the 2017 56's with a spearpoint blade, good knife with softer pull. I think this knife is pictured in post above this one.
Never pass up an opportunity for the clip blade 56.

Finally got around to posting some pictures of my 56. Some nice stag with a lot of character. This may turn into a EDC. I really like the size.

Great looking stag on that one LSS152. I f you don't have one of the single or double blade 78's I would highly recommend one if you like that 56 you will love the 78.

My 56 in stag is the Weaver Jack, built in 2011. I also have a 56 built in 2018 with Smooth Appaloosa Bone that they called a Bird Dog. I haven't touched the Weaver Jack in so long I can't tell you anything about the blade action but I sure do like the looks of it.
