All About Pocket Knives

Thanks guys!

As I related on another thread, I overlooked the 56 for a long time, and now I really like it a lot ...

I'll carry the 72 or 73 about every day...the 25 is my Sunday knife.

Nice looking trio Bob!

Nice ,bunch of EDC's,Bob___similar to the group,I carry___just don't have the smaller one___yet !!!!---Just started carrying the stockman (cause I dropped it on concrete,while taking pictures***),but I really can get into,the three blades___sorta like my old, 5347 Case,I carried so long

Thank's Mike...well Monk I got a little butterfingered the other day and droped "Ben" on the shop floor... ...so it's a edc now.
Those are some nice 72's...if you get tired of carrying that red stag I could help you out...

Bob

Nice knives fellas

Hey Bob is that 25 a Darksev? Man that lil pup looks sweet!!!

Been riding with me 2/3 mo. Clip blade for every day use. Spear point for cigars only.

JW, simply beautiful.

I decided to get this little one some pocket time.

Nice trio. Love the custom 25. Your work?

Earl you have a good eye...Adam (Darksev) did the work, only thing original is the blade.
Titanium liners, carbon fiber and G10 for the bolster and handle...it's light as a feather.

Johnny thats a sharp looking knife your carrying...

Bob

Thanks Johnny, Looks like that little one could tackle just about anything

Don't look now but you might want to make another post quick 666??

Wow thanks JW.
I left the house with 666 posts, I guess I'm blessed to be here now.

Bob,that Darksev is one handsome knife AND light as a feather,congrats bro.,very unique....I really dig it man

Hey Johnny - I like your new EDC ...

How does the sleeveboard compare size and feel-wise to the 25s? Startin to look at those with that inkling ...

Thanks,
Edge

Hey Edge, sorry about being late in getting an answer back to you.
They are almost exactly alike, size, weight, feel, everything, very nice for watch pocket EDC.

A 73 Scout and a Mink Skinner are my only two GECs so far, and they both get carried. Both have a little more use on them since this pic was taken.

Thanks, Johnny! I think I might have to see about one of those …

Cooter, those are two mighty fine EDCs ya got there! Great choices!

I just did a quick inventory and about 22 of 37 GECs are in, or have been in, my EDC rotation. Some more than others though.

Which ones do you seem to favor? A particular pattern or size?

I like to have at least one long blade with some belly and at least one straight edged blade. While my #53 Cuban Stockman and Furtakers should be at the top of my carry list, I find myself carrying a #48 single blade, regular, or jack along with a #61 half congress. Sometimes swapping a #48 for a #12 and a #61 for a #25. If I could get a #48 jack with a short wharncliffe, sheepsfoot, or coping blade, then I would probably become my primary carry knife. 3 3/4" - 4 1/8" would be the ideal size I think.

That said, I keep a #53 Furtaker, a Stockman, and a Victorinox Electrician by my computer for a quick grab and go knife if I'm in a hurry.

I also like the #73 pattern but its more than I need in a knife during my day so I don't carry them as much. #56s are nice but just a little smaller than what I'm looking for right now.

WOW, my first exposure to these knives. Absolutely beuteefull!!

Great question, Mike … thanks, 2Dead!

I think maybe I need to try out a 48 trapper … looks like a nice balance …

Oh we'll be here all right, to add fuel to the fire. Just ask Monk for advice, he'll help you out. What you need to do is go to a knife show where GEC is set up and see about 75 knives that you can handle and check out in person.
