Knife in your pocket now.....

[Gus McCrae]

GEC makes some really nice knives.

I'm carrying their #65 Ben Hogan slipjoint in antique bone today.

Isn't Northfield Knives Ship Free's house brand? I have a couple I really like. The Hawthorne is really nice.

Northwoods was bought by Derrick at Knives Ship Free.

Northfield is an old name that GEC bought and uses for their fancy carbon steel knives.

Nice knives.

Had a Tidioute Moose in Madagascar Ebony waiting for me when I got home. It's a pretty beefy slippie. Strong springs. I've been wanting a good Moose patterned knife ever since reading "Woodcraft and Camping"

Nice knife Motor51!

I got this one in the other day. A little stubby fellow, the GEC Northfield #26 Watch Pocket Sunfish in Cocobolo measures 3" closed:

Thanks Tom. Really, I buy and sell knives like I change underwear. I really only try to keep the ones I really like and will use. That Case 6375 has been with me a bit, I've been wanting a big ebony moose for a bit..... I the watchpocket is just cute. Right now I'm thinking I'll hold on to them. I also have a redbone peanut that I love....... I also got a Case Canoe that is getting recovered in something nicer than the peanut butter bone it came with.

I'm a slipjoint junkie.

Been carrying my PM2 more often than my ZT0561. I'm thinking of picking up another ZT0560 and swapping scales.

This one is currently on order and should be in my possession sometime in the next few weeks.

Pics from the maker:

What is this? One of the few fixed blades I could see myself buying.

It's called the "Urge" from Fall Creek Knives. Made by Shannon Carter. I have one on order. I should have my invoice next week and I'll post pictures when I get it.

Awesome, thanks.

A Remington R15 large stockman made in the 90s by Camillus. Got it off Ebay for $10, mint condition. Camillus (2004 and before) made some very nice folding knives. They have steel pivot pins that show through the bolsters, like German Eye knives. Probably makes them stronger, keeps the blades tight forever if not abused. Also like old Schrade 8OT large stockmans with 1095 carbon blades, get scary sharp. My mint Schrade Uncle Henry 885UH stockman, $20, should be here in a few days. I tried modern tactical knives, always go back to traditionals like my Dad carried.

Yup. I got rid of all of my assisted and single hand openers with exception of two. One has a traditional look (still never gets carried) and the other was from my Dad.

The SAK Cadet has a nail file/cleaner, small blade that I use for opening letters and boxes, a can opener and screwdriver for random tasks.
I mainly carry the ZT for EDC tasks. Cutting up boxes, zip ties, whatever.
The little fixed blade will do a thousand more tasks than my ZT will. Fixed blades will always be stronger than a folder. I can beat on the little fixed blade. Sometimes I carry the fixed blade as a necker, if I'm wearing gym shorts.

I don't do any prying with my knives, that's a no-no for any knife, but they get used. I think everyone should carry two knives, at least; One small folder, one medium fixed. I just happen to have my sizes backwards lol.

Hey nice Seiko, one of those solars? I wear an older Seiko quartz regularly. 5L

It's a Seiko SNE107 Solar Diver. Works fairly well for the price, which can be found around $120ish. I've seen some websites trying to sell them at the $300+ MSRP, so you have to look out for that.

Newest Davison. Stumbled into the opportunity.

Really nice. I have one similar with a Harley shield.

My new one is 1173 but I can't figure how to work the photo.
