Ordered an Elk Horn Toothpic. I guess they thought I needed a Muskrat instead. Anyway I like it. It can stay.

Yea, I'd like to order a ebony conductor and unwrap a Genuine Stag trapper instead. That would be sweet.

My latest GEC arrived............
NOS 2007 Northfield Snakewood Muskrat. A little disappointed in this one as the figure of the Snakewood on the pile side looks nothing like that of the wood on the mark side........
Still a exceptionally well built piece, I was just hoping for better bookending of the handle material.

Those are some great Court House Whittlers. I think GEC has hit a homerun with that pattern.
Tap your muskrat pile side almost looks like a burl. I like it better than the mark side. Would make a great EDC.

DoubleTap, I understand your disappointment at the lack of true scale "match", but man that pile side is flat gorgeous! Beautiful figuring … I'd take her any day ... I'm with JW - carry that beauty!
Earl, outstanding Cubans! Just beautiful.
Regarding the Spring Green bone - excellent question and good catch - the short answer is in good bright light, like sunlight, it looks like the picture; in average "lamp" lighting, it looks darker, more like the antique green bone of the early GEC Tidioutes. In either case, it is a classy color, not "crayola" looking at all.
I am lovin' this heyday of GEC collecting we are in … this could be the "remember when" I think ...

This pair arrived today.
These whittlers are easier to open than the congress version so they'll see more pocket time.
