I like the wood handles on some of these GECs. Plain and simple, yet elegant and durable. Show us your favorite GEC woodies! ::ds::

The wood handles are some of my favorites, but need to get some ebony yet. That lockback wharnie and the dogleg jack are really nice.

Perry, I bought the 'lil carver off an ebay dealer. Got a good price at auction and was gonna use it for EDC, but it is so purty I just couldn't bring myself to use it yet. I have a Northfield barlow with a wharncliffe blade that I really like as a usin' knife. ::nod:: Cuts like a laser and stays sharp as hell. ::tu::

There you go. All you need do is get to the point where you have "all those knives". I think with a couple more I'll be almost there. ::nod::

Does that ever happen? Really?

... I see folks all the time sayin' "The only cure for GEC fever is to get another one", well, it ain't curin' me so far, and I keep sayin' "All I need is just X, and I'll be good for a while ... "

And then I see the next one ...

Can anyone provide the link for 'GEC Gottahave Anonymous'?

:?

Nice knives gents!

Gunstock,
Looks like we have a few knives in common. The Ebony Dogleg Jack and Cocobolo Little Carver look familiar.

Singin,
Doc's Knife Works has a couple of the Cocobolo Little Carvers in stock. http://shop.docsknifeworks.com/category.sc?categoryId=7

Ebony #56, Cocobolo #25 and the one on the right is a French Laguiole with ebony, olivewood and filework. Not a GEC, but I tossed it in because that covers all my wood handled knives.

I bought this one to set aside. Seeing how I only caught the fever in 2010, I've got to do a little catching up ::groove::

Very nice guys!

Ken, maybe I just haven't been paying attention but that shield on your knife is just great!

Now I have to go searching around to see if I just overlooked it or what! It could be the wood that makes it stand out ::shrug::

That shield is out there...................it was easy to overlook, there aren't very many!

Maybe it's used on low-runs or limited knives...............more digging!
