All About Pocket Knives

Caleb its a 73 ::sorry:: Thanks barry, I have used it a few times in a couple days already and I love it.

Thanks Barry

Naww Gino, I wasn't sure what model it was, I thought you had originally said #73, but I wasn't sure.
It's hard for me to tell the difference until I see a pattern number.

It's really, really difficult to tell a 23 from a 73 when looking at a photo. GEC scales everything up on the 23, including the shield and laynard. Prob'ly use larger pins as well.

I rotate a few around but these 3 have been used the most since I've gotten them. The #33 has been my everyday knife since I got it at the beginning of October. It had replaced a #66 Jack. The #48 Jack has been in my pocket the most while at home. And the #73 is the one when I need to do some serious cuttin'

That line up is SWEET 2Dead! Some pretty nice GEC walkin around, COOL!!

These belt sheaths from TSA are the best I have owned. Went on a short scout the
other day and decided to take only this #23. The first hour was on some pretty steep
ground, so I had my wife braid some string for a quick tether.

Nice snag Monk! ::envy::

Welcome to the club.
I saw that one, great price, but I already have one.

I have a lot of new EDCs since this thread started.






The one getting all the time is the Bull Nose #71.
It's been a lot of fun, even though it differers from the norm of stag, bone and wood. I think that Delrin is a pretty nice material.

Both my EDC's are GEC's still

Caleb, I really dig that SB

Thanks Gino, I'm still lovin' that stag #73 of yours.
Great quality and beauty with that one.

Thanks Caleb with the together with my 85 they make a great pair.

This is my newest EDC.
So far so great, the size is really usable for a ton of chores. Great blade configuration as well.

Slight update... I've been using my #71 instead of a #73 since I got it and switched out my ebony conductor to one with elk covers. Still using the same #48.

I started carrying this 73 T also carry a 23

Very nice Trand and Vieu!

Vikingdog - what model is the white bone wharnie? I can't place it. Great looking knife, I am going to have to see if there are any more of those out there.

Thanks,
David

Still these two. I just cant beat them!

Yes!

I like 73/72's for my extended fly-fishing/camping/backpacking knives. I like the single-blade 48's for my backyard/day-hikes/outdoor food knives. A White Owl has recently replaced my usual 3 1/2" office, urban, custom knife. There is at least one more White Owl in my future.

This is my EDC GEC that Gino gave me. I carry it everyday, except today I had to switch to my Canal Street AAPK pinch lock because I shut my thumb in the door of my Expedition.
The spring on the GEC is so stiff that it hurts my thumb to open it, so I switched to the Canal Street because it has a much lighter spring in it.

I will switch back to the GEC as soon as my thumb quits hurting so bad.
