I'm with you Trand ......
Seeing everyone's display fueled my fire too!

The woods do have a character all to themselves,
and are a bit lighter in weight than the stag or bone.

I agree with you IM; that cocobolo is some really pretty wood with it's stripes of color and figure.

Hatback; nice group of photos! I'm glad to see you got that particular Tidioute Bocote; I very nearly pulled the trigger on that one myself only to decide too late! Congrats on a fine bunch!

Hatback I agree with everyone else..nice bunch and the photo's are fantastic
And
I'd never be disappointed with that Cocobolo bunch of your Gunstock

Thanks all.

You guys sure pull all the stops when it comes to pickin' some real beauties!
The woods have really grown on me and this one arrived earlier in the week.

That is a beautiful knife and the sheath is sweet! Did you make it?

Another #73 LL in Cocobolo.

Ahh... the coveted cocobolo and snakewood toothpicks arrive!

hatback · Post by **hatback** » Wed Sep 21, 2011 12:48 am

Barry .... that cocobolo toothpick took me off guard ... VERY NICE!!!

((I wasn't aware GEC produced any in the #12 (must be a short run??).))

I stitched up the pouch for my #12 snakewood mainly for pocket protection.
If I EDC a GEC, I always use a pouch ... and with other brands not so often.

Here's a new release ebony #23 and an older bocote #48.

2Dead · Post by **2Dead** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:35 am

About time this one comes back up... Here's some new Bocote (#73L), Cocobolo (#85), Curly Maple (#53), and Desert Ironwood (#73).

2Dead · Post by **2Dead** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:39 am

And some Ebony (#33, #73, and #85)

paulsvintage · Post by **paulsvintage** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 8:31 pm

nice collection of woodies !

Doug Add · Post by **Doug Add** » Thu Mar 08, 2012 3:50 am

Love those ebonies Trand!

You all will have to disregard the rosewood John Lloyd shadow for purposes of this thread, but here are two of my GEC woodies an ebony 68, and a cocobolo 72:

Gunstock Jack · Post by **Gunstock Jack** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 5:04 pm

A pair to compare...

The 45 has some really black scales on him, the 73 is my newest carry knife.

big monk · Post by **big monk** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 6:52 pm

The nickle silver,end caps & bolsters,do make the Ebony Wood ""special"" !!!! (IMHO)

Gunstock Jack · Post by **Gunstock Jack** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 8:21 pm

I agree Monk; I'd like to see Great Eastern do more in that exact pattern with some nice wood or bone. How about some Tulip wood, or Kingwood, or even Purpleheart?

Desert Ironwood would be something truly special!

HiPower · Post by **HiPower** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 8:35 pm

love to see some purpleheart.--HiPower

Gunstock Jack · Post by **Gunstock Jack** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 9:04 pm

With a little imagination, you can just see what it might look like...

From the top; ebony, tulip wood, kingwood, and purpleheart. The kingwood is really nice; hard, fine grained, and decently figured, but they'd all look cool.
