What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

When I saw this 2010 Northfield Mini Lockback Hunter here on Blade Forums it was love at first sight. I thought it was the most beautiful knife I'd ever seen! With a 3.12" clip point blade, lockback, made by GEC and that red stag... WoW, it just had to be the "perfect pocket knife" for my needs. Never thought I'd own one yet only a couple years later I found this one and it's been an excellent companion ever since. 😎 Do you believe in love at first sight? Is it possible that some things were just meant to be? Is Blade Forum an enabler? 🤔

Ya'll have a great day and I hope each and everyone of you finds his or her grail knife. Happy hunting! :)

Congratulations on finding that one, what a beautiful knife I can see why you are so smitten with it.

Yes, I like yellow knives.

Also, a big YES to all of your questions redsparrow redsparrow ! Some
knives just grab you for no apparent reason. I never thought for a second I would like a knife with a banana shield, but I love that Rotten Banana 85. In fact, if a knife stops making me feel happy when I grab it out of my Gerstner, off it goes to make room for one that does! As for the great enabler, I would probably only have about five knives rather than 50 if BF did not exist.

The Red Stag 72 might very well be the best looking GEC of all time. Congratulations on owning one.

Beautiful bunch Gary! 5K Qs 5K Qs

Are you referring to me, or the duck? Sorry, Jack, sometimes, I just quack myself up...🤣

I think they’re nervous about that mustache, Bart.🫢

Really like that cattle knife you carried several days last week, Jeff! :cool::cool::thumbsup:
What blades does it have? Is that clip blade its original shape, or did you have to fix a broken tip?



Still admiring that cattle knife, Jeff, and the stag pen knife is outstanding! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

That one sucks me in every time I get it out, and I often end up carrying it for several days in a row.
It has four blades, main clip, sheepsfoot, spey, and leather punch. Or earwax cleaner if you’re brave enough. A683A941-A1AC-4F6C-9357-E06FBE3BDD40.jpeg96645567-F978-4CB0-8E8B-A5C5A276E7E4.jpeg
No broken tip that I know of, just steel lost to years of use and sharpening. That has the effect of shortening the clip point.
It has been well loved ~ by owner(s) past and present.
Thank you!

I was thinking these make a nice combination. Camillus and Imperial.

I’ll tell you what, Mr. Jer. You really lucked into that Lakeland Packaging Association Camillus! Don’tcha love that Camillus Ivoroid?
And what a cool promotional item to hand out at trade shows, instead of the usual junk.
