Mike, The Whaler and Harness Jack are great knives, just awesome. I was home a couple of years ago and my Dad and I drove up to GEC. They showed us around the factory, nice folks, impressive operation. ::tu:: Bull

Here's a nice, well made knife. 2 1/2". Windsor Cutlery, Germany.

The knives before me sure are nice.

This is a great knife even though it has the 2 smaller blades broken. It's a G.R.C.. The remaining blade ( main blade which I'm not sure if it has been re-profiled or it is actually a spear point ) snaps open and shut like an old, been around, 'Gator. The advertising I'm assuming, is the address and picture of the original owner. Cool old pocket knife! ::groove:: ::tu:: Bull

Interesting knife. I live in the Borderland, but this is the first time I've heard of a Mexican-made Imperial.

IIRC the Imperial venture into Mexico was a sort of a trial balloon that never really got off the ground. There were a number of knives produced there though.

Here is a link to some pics of them on Collectors-of-Schrade:
