GEC Wishlist

[JA5544]

What would you like to see GEC make? I’m mainly talking about something they have not offered before, but if you have something they have done before in mind then tell us anyways.

I would love to see a 66 frame, slant bolsters, 2 blade, and a good looking jiggged bone. I’m basically describing the Bull Winkle, which I would love to have, except I would trade the spear point for a sheepsfoot.

I’m pretty new to traditionals, so I won’t be surprised if someone tells me that they have offered something similar and I have just missed it.

 

[Elgatodeacero]

Mini trapper pattern.

 

[rbeggs]

Texas Jack

 

[blades&wrenches]

Single blade gunstock, even though I had glennbad make me one out of a standard 2 blade

 

[Norcaldude]

A multi-blade sowbelly would be cool.

 

[black mamba]

I think a lot of us are waiting and hoping for a sowbelly.
And more stainless offerings, especially their stockman patterns.

 

[JohnDF]

More patterns in their (cheaper) Farm and Field line.

 

[SVTFreak]

Another run of 81 stockman. Be nice with the secondary shapes of the last 82 run.

A 48 with a single wharncliff blade.

A 48 with a clip and small wharncliff secondary.

A smaller square end stockman, like the 66 size.

 

[Frailer]

More patterns in their (cheaper) Farm and Field line.

I’m not the first (or the second) person to suggest this, but a F&F lambsfoot would be awesome.

 

[cbr1000]

Single blade in nifebright.

 

[easternknives]

Lockback whittler similar to the Case Bose collab.

 

[Stelth]

22 Magnum in 440C.

 

[waverave]

A medium coke bottle with single clip blade

 

[Travman]

A medium coke bottle with single clip blade

I second that idea. I’m picturing the first run Pembertons,, but the size of the 15’s.

I’d also like to see a smaller version of the Northfield EO 85’s. Maybe 3.25 inch closed length.

 

[JoeGoblyn]

I just want there to be more stainless options. I like a nice patina, but it’s a bummer when I knife gets rust going on it all from being in a humid pocket.

[McFeeli]

A 48 with single Wharncliffe would be amazing.

I’d also love slightly larger 56 frame with a Wharncliffe as well, a Tidoute/Northfield styled Wharncliffe would actually be my preferred blade shape, it’s a bit lower in height and much more pointed. The Fayette Jack is a favorite of mine, so I’d be curious to see what it’d be like with a 3” blade over a 2.5”. I think the frame would work really well as a 4”, but it is a bit tough to imagine it.

 

[Misplaced Hillbilly]

Well if they can do the 97 coke bottle, I dont see it being to much of a stretch for a 5" daddy barlow. Or even at the 97's 4.6" would be ok. Flat ground clip with a long pull and nice swedge.

 

[Mayonardo]

Larger Pemberton style, like 3” closed, clip and Wharncliffe.

A two blade 66, clip and sheep or Wharncliffe.

A 44 with clip and sheep foot. Burlap micarta.

A general run of lamb foot.

 

[ISKRA]

Another run of 68 pony jacks.

Another run of 68 white owls.

A cattle knife on the 35 frame, 3 or 4 blades.

A bigger version of the 33 pattern, either 3.5 or 3.75 inches.

A sleeveboard whittler on a reversed 15 frame.

 

[Lansky1]

more 2 blade congress #61's with traditional sheepsfoot & clip, NOT the wharncliffe !!! Acrylics preferred...
