Anytime bud, I love seeing people's latest GEC pick ups. Always a good viewing experience.

Also love any GEC really, but to me it's nice to see their products under a different brand name. Love to see how other companies design knives that GEC builds for them. Here are a few I love and am grateful to people like Derrick Bohn for getting GEC to step out of their lane and stretch to bring us horses of a different color/breed. RIP Mr. Bohn, will see ya on the otherside and tell ya myself one day. Thanks, thanks, thanks again for the Northwoods. Special shout out to brother Q on the big island for letting me get the Hawthorne. One of my faves all time. ::handshake::

Lucky to have these two. Great patterns combined with exceptionally jigged chestnut bone really makes them special.

Sweet looking knife, David. I always did like that Wilhelm Busch shield that Frank uses. I wish I would have kept the only knife I had with that shield. It's very unique.

Glad I saw able to pick up one of these unique knives, real cool history to this pattern. Here is a comparison with the Case/Bose stockman which is also a good sized knife.
