Northfield UN-X-LD Eureka Jack

Post by waggo71 »

My first GEC, more of a vintage brand guy, but I will say that their take on a new "old" knife is pretty impressive. Pic is not my exact knife but looks just like it. Been looking at the #15 also, if they made it with a rear bolster I would own one.

I have the exact 92 the OP shows. It's a huge favorite of mine, one of my most carried EDC's and I dare say a near-perfect Grail knife with it's spear/coping blade combo.

You won't have long to wait. There is another run of 15's coming up in single spear, spear/pen, and spear/caplifter configurations with end cap in the usual handle materials. SWEET! ::ds:: ::ds:: ::ds::

Awesome news... The endcap version in single spear will end up being a "I gotta have that!"... You guys are killing me! lol
