When the knife your grandfather/father carried or put up is handed down to you...treasure it...open it up from time to time...and by all means, keep it!

Re: acrylic?
Yes, it's acrylic. If I'm not very badly mistaken (it happens), GEC has never used any Celluloid on their knives.

Re: acrylic?
acrylic is not only stable but very tuff. i doubt any would crack if dropped. i believe the old problems associated with celluloid have made some sales of gecs acrylics slower.--HiPower
