biglmbass · Post by **biglmbass** » Mon Sep 19, 2011 2:00 pm

Has GEC ever made a stainless, single blade, drop point #73 with end caps?

Two were made without end caps,but I can't think of any that were made with end caps...........

Jim, any pics of the ones without endcaps?

Glenn,
I picked this one up a few months ago. I believe it was a SFO though.

Nice one, Trand.

What variations, bogg?

Crap....I thought that one was a Northfield and forgot it said GEC...Trad ,yep 1 of 100and the other two were 1 of 50 and the steel is 420 on all three...stag,horsecut ruby and horsecut walnut. Greg on his TSA Blog talked about these back in 2008(PRETTY SURE)or 2009.

Also from a previous discussion about these three knives..remember there is no mention of Cyclops Steel Works on the tang..another identifying mark.

Big...I don't think they ever made one in that configuration, I did have one made up by MM ...had the spey blade deleted.

Boggs...Very nice knives...

...do you know who they were made for?

Bob

Thank's Monk, I believe those knives were made with 420HC insted of 440C...I wonder if it was the Parker knife bunch...

Yep,they were the 420HC, but had nothing to do with the ""PARKER BOYS""_____this guy had GEC,make him 50 with end cap and 50 without, of each handle material___he was also a Case dealer,along with other brands__sold all his knives,on e-bay__and still does,I think???__I just can't find my info??

::dang::________hey Boggs_____HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is what you're looking for, Monk. Trand provided it to me via email when I inquired about his knife.

Wish GEC would crank some out. I've decided I need/want/gotta have one with end caps and I'd prefer stainless (440C if you please) for EDC.
