That's just about my perfect knife, Barlow pattern, single spear-point blade, EZO, it's checking all the boxes for me!
Thanks for showing that beauty!


It will fell at home at your place.
I would agree with your observations on the Plainsman! Glad you like yours. I'm very pleased with the one I have.Ivoryman wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 9:58 pm Update: after using it a few times here are some observations. The spring tension is fabulous. Stout, tight, solid with heavier pull. I'd say7, maybe 8. Which is how I want it. I cut a lot of cardboard and some knives are so easy close, week snap, that they will close on you when ripping long pieces of cardboard if you're not careful. This will stay open, solidly, tight, zero wobble or movement. Like a dream. The last couple patterns from them have weeker tension to the point of mushy and feels like it might accidentally close on you. Week spring or just the tension. This 72 plainsman is a pleasure to use. It scoups, slices, peels, pokes, cuts well and all. The textured or jigged micatra is even better gripping than smooth. And I love the brushed finish bolster and blade. I also like the understated dusty-look color of the micarta and the excellent feel because of jigging. 5 stars, 10 out of 10, A+ from GEC.![]()

Cooooooool knife, I like that. Looks like its oozong silky smooth. Beauty. Thanks on the 72. Great knives.
Beautiful C/C, David, I was going to ask when I previously saw it for the details, but that's not necessary now.
Thanks Ivoryman!
Looks like Beaver hunting has been bountiful.
Thank you kindly!
