And so you should love it, Tim, and I see that so far you're showing it the respect it deserves by not using it! ::nod::
Stunning knife, buddy! :shock:

Thanks a ton! Took many years just to get these 4 together. I figure I’ll keep adding if I find more versions of the greenbone. Maybe a clip blade..

If you can find and add more, kudos to you. Those are such beauties, and how many are there left out there in such amazing condition? I mean they look mint to me. I hear sometimes said that if an old knife looks too good to be true, probably fake. But in my experience, at least on here and Blade Forums, there seem to be a heck of a lot of old knives like that in great condition, like yours are, almost pristine. Lots of people must have bought knives and put them away, never using them or enjoying them. Some amazing knives out there still to be found. Congrats on scoring those that you did. Wow is all I can think of at the moment.

Got this one in last week. Looks like a keeper to me. Glad to see GEC making a two blade barlow. The handles are really nice on this.

That's a beauty, Mark, kindda reminds me of the big Bark River I got from you awhile back.
I agree, it's certainly a keeper!

Thanks guys. I was really impressed with it when I opened the tube. I buy these GEC knives reflexively and one will really capture me and this one sure did. What a beauty?
