Show off your favorite GECs!

Post by Darksev »

This new forum deserves to be broken in properly! Everyone break out your favorites!

I'll start with a few, just to show off ;)

Two #25's, one with a stripped real bolster and my own stag, and the other with Mango. Both of these get carried all the time, hence the slighly beat up blades :)

Why is there 2 that are the same? Or, what makes them different? I'm talking about the two #23's with printed scrollwork. Excellent collection ::tu::

GEC's stag selection is just fantastic. I'm thinking I should sneak up to Titusville and look behind the factory for the secret herd of sambar deer :P

Nice collection LC, I sure am lusting after that Grits and Molasses Cuban. There is two 2007 Acrylic Cubans I still am trying to add to my collection; Grits and Molasses and Fall harvest. That for sharing those photos.
Wow! That baby is sharp.

Thats a great set of 06's j5109...I wish I'd started collecting GEC when they came out...Adam your customs are super...I think GEC's are an excellent knife to customize, I'm thinking of getting a couple flat bolster 73's to have rehandled.
I decided to focus on their stag handled knives...the 23 and 73 pattern's are my favorites, but the 54's are nice and the 25's...
Started putting these stag's together about a year and a half ago...I'm missing a few, but I'll eventually find them!

This is my only GEC. I got it last week and after handling it, I'm afraid now I will have to get more. I think they're releasing a Northfield toothpick sometime soon in Burnt Stag.

This isn't an advertisement since this knife is already spoken for. But this has to be the best genuine stag Sunfish/Elephant Toe I've ever seen. Only 8-9 of these were made.
