Awesome! They look spectacular!

Just as bad as KSF drop.

They’re Still available- try again.

Fit & finish are fantastic- as usual. The snake wood far exceeded my expectations!

I usually prefer jigged bone but there’s just something about Cocobolo on this pattern!

All of these are beautiful knives !!!
You’re 3 for 3 on acquiring them !!!!

Thanks. I’m definitely a fan, these are really well made knives. They’re just not easy to come by anymore.

Just these three at the moment…

I lucked out and got an Elderberry Jigged Bone 54 in the DLT drop. Should arrive Monday. Here's the glamour shot from DLT's drop page. I hope mine is as nice as this one ...

Wow, perfect!

Thanks (as if I had anything to do with that)

It really is!

Picked up this American Redsmith series Old Man Norman recently. It's really nicely done, fit and finish/walk & talk/etc are all great. I had been wanting something with mammoth covers for some time and am thrilled to have this one.

Thanks Bryan, this one looks like another winner!

Ken

This really is fabulous!

I had one waiting for me today as well. Definitely small, but I think I'll like it. Fit and finish is quite good, it's nice and snappy, 4-ish pull. I love the color on the micarta scales. I'm going to carry it for a few days to see how I like it.

I ended up with a Kudu. There were far nicer ones but they were disappearing like hotcakes so I jumped on it. I tried to get knives on 5 NW drops and this only my second success so I'm happy!

Cudgee - I was not. I did land an AAPK today which I'm thrilled about, but it was so nice here this afternoon I went outside to enjoy it and missed the DLT stag drop. TPKs is tomorrow night but I have a date night planned with my wife so that eliminates the little chance I had. It's cool though, may...

I just got an email from CK, i had a Red Coral Reserved. It should ship mid next week, $70!!

I hear this is a larger run also, so maybe the mad dash won't be so bad on these.

Since the 74s mostly came in under $100, I would expect these to be even less by a bit - at least for the Tidoutes. $80-$90 ish?

Thanks! The fit & finish on these is just about perfect as well. Great snap, about a strong 5 or light 6 pull. GEC hit it out of the park with these in my opinion.

The 74s may be my favorite GEC pattern yet. I'd love to get a stag and the AAPK knife to complete this year's set but I can't complain if I miss them ...

Well done Roger and Ken (and GEC). I've been champing at the bit for these for several months and they look like they'll exceed my expectations. I hope you're able to continue these SFOs in the years to come - there's something special about the link to the historical knives they emulate that I don'...

KJ - I know exactly how you feel. Although I was much later to the GEC circus (only about 2 years now) my enthusiasm has waned during the past few months. I do think it's a bit of depression from Covid, the political climate, etc. coupled with many of us not seeing our family and friends nearly as m...

Eric - you did a fabulous job on these! Every one I've seen has been awesome. I've been carrying the snakeskin every day since I got it. The basket weave is super cool, but almost seems too nice to carry. I'll get over it and put it in my pocket one of these mornings

Yes, it's the Snakeskin. It's pretty neat stuff, there were a ton of interesting choices.

I ended up with three #62s. The pocket carvers weren't really my thing, but the three Easy Pocket Congress knives I ended up with are all pretty nice to carry ...

Received these two yesterday - I'm absolutely thrilled with both of them (my first Red Trouts and Canal Streets) ...
