two stocks from gec 2008

[HiPower]

the stock whitt in green velvet acrylic & the cuban stock in stag. both premium patterns are great users for busy guys outdoors. the stock whitt has 3 backsprings. these 53 & 54 patterns are favs of collectors. please show your own favoeites.---HiPower

Nice ones, HP. I've been giving a lot of thought to getting a 3-spring whittler. How much wider are they than a stockman? Obviously a spring width, but I'm curious if the secondary blades are of thinner stock. A photo looking at the end of both knives would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Hey Dennis**** I like the Stockmans too !!!!___

[Earl]

Sweeeet knives fellas I'm fond of them myself.....

Bout time GEC made another run of those 54's

[HiPower]

please keep the pics coming--no modern factory knife excites myself more than gec.--HiPower

[biglmbass]

Great pics, Dennis. Thanks. They do help. I'm guessing that whittler is the same thickness as the broad-shouldered Tuna Valley 4-blade stockman.

Borrowed pic of a TV on the left compared to a 53 Furtaker trapper on the right.

I have a couple stockman.

hey classic --very impressive especially the best of many cuban acrylics. i.m.o. acrylics lose a lot when used on the smaller knives. if one wishes to show distinctive colors then larger frames certainly accent that feature. all in all the 53 & 54 frames certainly are one of my favs in my gec collection. more on this later.--HiPower

Why did you quite on 2007?

I bought 2 of every knife GEC made stamped 2006 and 2007.(with a very few exceptions of some of the really rare ones.) That got to be a bit expensive.lol

I would like to say that it has been great to see these in an up close view. I am also very fond of these and need a few more now.
