Wow! Stunning scrimshaw my friend, and on the perfect medium as well. Though I'm probably biased as I think the #78 is the greatest GEC out there.View attachment 1168853 View attachment 1168852
I have wanted to add a Scrimshaw knife to my collection for quite a while. Several weeks ago, I came across a very talented artist and decided to entrust her with a GEC white bone 78 as her canvas. She did a great job. I can lose myself in the scene she created.
r8shell , I know you love Scrimshaw and thought you might enjoy seeing this.
@Gevonovich and @meako , as the Porch’s two poet laureates, I thought this knife might fire your imaginations!

Don't worry, anyone who would think that's silly wouldn't be reading this forum.![]()
Clerk’s Knife and ebony Calf Roper. Going with me to the hospital today as my chemo security knives. Silly, but makes me feel better.
So cool! That's great work, thanks for showing it.View attachment 1168853 View attachment 1168852

She normally uses Chinese knives to keep the cost down, but I cannot abide by those products. She did a great job. I can lose myself in the scene she created.

Thankssolphilos , the 78 is a classic. The walk and talk of every one that I have owned has been perfect. I thought the shape and large size of the handles would give her a lot of real estate to draw on.
Thanks RonHalf/Stop !
‘Preciate it JJ!I'm a huge fan of the TL-29 but that Robeson EO jack is very cool!![]()
Great knife, and I love the photo with the rain in the distance.Grabbed this trapper offVCM3 a week ago and it’s been riding in the pocket ever since. John Lloyd makes a fine working knife and this one will live a full life.
Another great day here on the plains.
