Your First GEC

My first, which I no longer have, was the 2012 forum knife. Nice knife but too heavy for me to pocket carry.

 

My first GEC was this Tidioute #55 Hound Tooth with Mexican Bocote covers.

 

Thanks John! I like Spear blades, but I really like them straight edges!

 

I never was one for doing anything half way and I guess that includes my first GEC. It was a Charlie Campagna Texas Camp Knife SFO and what a beautiful knife it was. However because I have soft nails the punch was just a bit hard for me to open so my First GEC also became my first sale on BladeForums. I ended up selling it to a very greatful Member of The Porch. Ever since I've always gone out of my way to try and find a fellow member that may want what I've got to sell before just putting it up for sale. ✌

 

My first is this 99 Wall Street. It sparked my fascination with Wharncliff blades. Still have it and still use it.

 

Yeah, that's the stuff

 

Thank you!

 

oops

 

My first Saw it for sale here in the exchange and jumped on-board

 

Mine was a natural micarta soda scout in 2015. The sheepsfoot and cap lifter caught my eye. The funny thing is, back then, it sat on the website for several days while I pondered whether or not I should buy it. I’m glad I did because I still use it all the time.

 

My first GEC a #23 in bocote. Still have it. Not a favorite. Fit and finish bleh... the rest I have are as they should be. I’d rather use Case knives. GEC are overpriced.
