I carry this 56 weaver jack the most, although I have several GEC's I rotate through.

Thanks, I'll throw a couple more pics your way. Burlap is by far my fav micarta. Ands the Frosted Mini Wheat white resin rocks. Never seen it except on this run of Northwoods. Hope they do more with it. Like the new brown on the Mustang too.


J1890 you have some mean patina coming on that one and great colors with the leaves and grass. Calendar shot.

Trouts, that's some fine wood grain and great blonde color, doesn't look stock to me, is that modded scales? Wow is that great wood.

Totally nailed it with this one! I kinda dig the Micarta pattern on that 74. Pretty cool

Beautiful Improved Trapper. The patina improved it even more.

Stellar stag on that one. Coloring looks like it’s been in someone’s pocket for 50 years. ::tu::

I agree. I totally lucked out with that one.

Today, it Tuesday so I rolling with these two.
The 86 is a beast, but I find both blades very useful. The jigged bone is a nice color as well.

That patina is almost exclusively from my lunchtime apples. I’ve got an extra 29 M&G I’m thinking of breaking in next and yours is encouraging me!

Break it in, break it in, they are all for using and enjoying and I enjoy my GECs more than most products. I like the 29. Great size and style. Also kind of like that it doesn't have any GEC markings. Would love to see it.
Here's a couple more I use and love on.

#66 Calf roper stockman with jigged autumn leaf bone '17 and a #92 Eureka '19 smooth autumn gold bone. Like a good spreading spear and a sharp poker.
