Nice jigging on that one Stich!
I believe it's possible for you to post your pic directly into these threads.
If you care to; after sending you pic to IMGUR click on it, then select the BBCode by clicking on "copy", place you cursor where you want to show your photo and paste it using your control key and v key simultaneously. Your pic should show in your post. Hope this helps.
That 26 is super nice!!!
You hardly ever see any of them anymore.
I remember days when things like this were possible.put a pretty low bid less than $40 woke up and found out I had won it.
I do love the 26’s and yours is a beauty. Do you remember what the name of the handles on that one were called?Thanks, that was how I was posting from my phone but that option disappeared for some reason?, anyways you prompted me to figure it out another way thanks.
Thanks I got really lucky on a late night eBay bidding must have been 8 years? Anyways I lost a bid for a GEC stag 1/2 Congress because I fell asleep, I saw the 26 and put a pretty low bid less than $40 woke up and found out I had won it.
I never get tired of seeing it.
You ain’t kidding, I had a pretty good eBay and flea market run.I remember days when things like this were possible.
I know they are 2nd cut stag, I’m not sure if GEC calls it burnt or burnt jigged 2nd cut stag? I’ll try and look for the tube and birth certificate, everything is a user, but I’m sure I have the tube andI do love the 26’s and yours is a beauty. Do you remember what the name of the handles on that one were called?
This one checks three big boxes for me; it's a Dogleg, in Natural Micarta and of course it's a Tidioute.
So it gets carried frequently. Have a wonderful Wednesday all!

Amazing bit of fortune and nice to see it in use. The Wharncliffe version is much better, I feel, than the Spear variant.
Think you should dig out that Tube & paper, is it Stag? It looks to me like it might be Antique Black Jigged Bone, 50 serialised ones came out at the same time. Matters not though as it's a magnificent little knife.

Thanks. That is a cool one. I didn’t know GEC did jigged stag. If you get a chance, you should post some pics of it over here...Definitely stag, my memory is still good
Thanks John, I never get tired of carrying it and it seems every photo I take of it turns out well enough to share. Guess it's photogenic.I never get tired of seeing it.
Oh, you are right Will, I mis-wrote. In the interest of being more accurate, I should have written "checks at least 6 big boxes" and added, "Spear blade, favorite shield and in my pocket."All well & true, but you forgot to mention Spear
