Let's see your GEC #23's, 73's, 83's and 72's

Too good a thread with some great pictures to let die.

All of the pictured knives are manufactured by GEC on their #73 frame but not all carry the GEC name.

A #23 pattern by any other name, is just as sweet!!
They used to be dirt cheap on Ebay!! Made in 2007, you couldn't give them away in the secondary market!!

One dealer put the Schrade Fire & Ice 73s on sale priced in the mid 50s and the Schrade Fire & Ice 23s on sale priced in the mid 60s. I bought three 73s and two 23s. What a deal !!!!!!!! Still have them. Wouldn't part with them no matter what the offer BUT I would entertain an offer for a can of my Hormel Chili with Beans.

I've got one of those - Ruby Red Bone and all.

 

[Modoc ED]

Well then, how about one with Plumb Bone covers?

Here is an early #73 from 2006, GEC's first year!!
Green Moss on Bark jigging - I think!!??!! Flush and square, it's a typical nail-breaker (in a good way!) from the early works of Mr.Howard!!

 

[Modoc ED]

Might as well keep this on page 1 - hopefully, some of you guys and gals will post more 23s, 73s, 83s, 72s, this upcoming weekend.

Don't think I've shown this one lately but even if I have, it's worth another look.
