::hmm::
Not sure why it would happen,
but if you could only keep one
GEC knife from your collection,
you would probably choose...


Myself, I'd go with this #36 sunfish because even if the blades broke off,
I could still use the darn thing as a hammer or even an oar for my raft ~

Although smaller, this one has more blades!

Both of these knives are dangerously close to going into my carry rotation! ::super_happy::

Hmmmm, an island huh? ::smirk::
Guess I'd have to go with my #12 Tpick.
8) It's thin, yet still a tough knife, great with the stainless blade, especially because I'm on an island. (lots of water around an island I hear) :roll:

Ohh yeah, it's great on fish, ask me how I know. :wink:

Really tough question.

I think I'd pick this one, for its all-around versatility …

(Although, I gotta admit Caleb's point about stainless in that scenario does make sense! … See?, I do need another GEC! … ::nod:: )

Since I only have two at this point--something I hope to correct at some point--it'd have to be the 73. Very practical working knife.

Can I take the little Smith, too?

That'll work Cooter, just bring an extra pistol for everyone else. ::groove::
Thanks Monk and Edge! Bought this Buffalo #23 from Jim some years back, 2007 I think.
It's a beauty! ::ds::
