Fabulous shot of your cool AGR Lockback collection, Mark! ::tu::

I’m a huge fan of Fallkniven’s Northern Lights Series. Just finished treating the leather handles and add a lanyard on the largest one.

Fallkniven does make some of the best knives you can get. I love their slip joints too.

Set my sites on these Tony Bose lockback whittlers. So far I have 3. Until I got them all out for a group shot, I didn’t realize these were made two different times with two different main blades. This just got a lot more expensive collecting them all. I still don’t know what all the different handle materials are for these, it’s going to be fun and longer hunt than I realized.

That’s the one I am most tempted to carry. I like wooden handles and this knife feels great with this wood.

Thanks Kevin, I appreciate the information. Looks like I will need to sell a lot more knives to fund this new venture. I bet that abalone version is going to cost a lot.

I don't think that I've posted this one here, but I think it fits. These are all the GEC 57 Whittlers in various covers with clip blades that were produced. Still working on the whittlers with Wharnie main blade...Need a couple!

I’m a long time collector in search of rare and limited GEC AND Northwoods knives. Always looking to add ivory pieces to my collection. PM to discuss sales or trades, please!

My humble accumulation of Old Timers. The 108OT in the box, I bought at a small smoke and blade shop in the Heritage Park Mall in Midwest City, OK in early 1983. I lived right around the corner and was on my second Air Force assignment (Tinker AFB) and had just recently re-enlisted at 21 yrs old. Carried it a few years and then put it away. Amazed I still have it. The 125OT is a Schrade-Walden and one of the few 125OTs I've seen without the lanyard hole. Not fancy or rare, but every one of them is a top notch quality tool.
