Hi Michael,Smart looking knife that! Wright's spear is quite pleasing.
And the stag has more character than I would expect. Is it their Pere David?
Nice one Tim.
Michael
That's my favorite model of Case Stockman.CV amber bone stockman
Very nice.Just received this little A. Wright lambfoot and can’t wait to put it to use. I’ve got a larger lambfoot and absolutely love it as a user. Neither have the best fit and finish but that doesn’t hinder performance. Excited to get this one dirty!!

Nice piece.I hesitated to post this knife, as it probably doesn’t fit many folks’ definition of “traditional,” even given the bewilderingly wide variety of fixed-blades devised during the past few thousand years. Nevertheless, I re-read the posting guidelines, and I think I’m good-to-go.
I’ve tried for many years—without success—to find a fixed blade suitable for routine carry. Unfortunately, every knife I’ve tried has either been too small to be useful or too large or bulky to carry discretely. (I’m not concerned about frightening observers; I just don’t want to look as if I’m about to head off into the woods when I’m shopping for groceries, and I’d like the flexibility to be able to wear it on my belt or shove it comfortably into a front pocket.) Daniel Fairly’s excellent “Backpacker” model came *very* close to satisfying my requirements, but thus far he has only made these in titanium, which limits its utility in some situations.
On New Year’s Day I decided to order a GiantMouse GMF1, and it arrived a couple of days ago. To make a long story short, I’m *loving* this knife. I won’t carry it every day, but I think it’ll prove very useful for those days when I anticipate tackling jobs that might prove a bit much for the SAK in my left pocket or the small single-blade jack in my right.

Nice piece.
I am interested to hear the exuberant feedback. It looks like a great utility / EDC size.
I remember these when released and like the design, esp the sheath.
Would you be a fan of adding handle scales or keeping it as-is?
I know what you mean. There are times when I would like to have a small yet functional fixed blade that I could put in my pocket. I have also been looking at these knives and sheaths for sometime. I would be very interested to hear how it is working out for you.I thought there was only room in my heart for traditional American slipjoints and SAKs, but I may need to make space for some excellent Danish designers as well.
One of GEC’s best stockman patterns in my view. I have this and an ebony thanks to a forum brother.GEC 661317 Calf Roper Medium Stockman arrived from CKNet today - very pleased with this knife. As an avid fan of the Medium Stockman I should have bought one of these years ago. OH
