2019 GEC 86 Oil Field Jack and Forum Knife Picture Thread

[ArchiveMoto]

So does anyone have a solid list and number of variants on the 86? I did a little graphic for the 78 run when it hit and Im thinking the 86 deserves something similar, I counted 14 based on production numbers but no accounting for Northwoods or Waynorth oddballs, and the peat impairs so I know Im missing some.

I'm hoping the next run of 86's has a big spear, rat tail bolster and bare end.

Thank you, I am a little embarrassed seeing them all in one place, but this is my absolute favorite GEC knife they've ever made, and when they dropped and I kept seeing all the variations, that was all she wrote.

Spectacular! Bravo,

Very IMPRESSIVE my friend

I appreciate it, gentlemen. It took me a bit, but thankfully, being GECs, these things do pop up! I got to do business with multiple excellent BF members in the pursuit as well, which was all the better!

Which is your favorite Quiet ?

I only had three (all three with the wrench shield) but kept the micarta for EDC.

I would have to say that it's a three way tie for "Favorite", with these three:

- Blackjack
- Gunstock Jack's SFO (Bloodwood)
- USS Texas Damascus model

Bonus consideration: Bladeforums 2019 knife

I enjoy elements of every one of them, but if I had to choose only three I could keep, it would be one or all of those three.

Long overdue post to this thread but this has to be the classiest knife in my collection, an absolute gem!

There is a single blade smooth white bone by Lone Star. Same guy that had the damascus one done by GEC. Percy Richardson.

Man, my collection is complete for now.

The JSR GEC#86 Chocolate Almond peach-seed bone oil field jack is the best GEC brown color. My darker one is my favorite GEC EDC. I am hoping that GEC uses that same bone color on the #23 Northfield Brown jigged bone trappers coming up soon.

added one more, an S tortoise shell, but it wont remain that way for long. took a little bit of looking to find the issue, and it really isnt even bad
