Johnny, this is the Copperhead Jig Bone in the NF line. The Saddle Brown is in the Tidioute lineup. I liked it too but mainly go for the NF's to collect and the Tid's to carry - at least usually.

Jan, the Patriot collection is almost there. There are a few strays that I am looking to find but may never be so lucky. I have the Moose, both #73's - end capped and no EC (and one #73 proto too) and the #25 spear barlow and the #25 sheepsfoot barlow. I think that there are some short runs out there that have eluded me. If anyone has these and wants to part with them let me know. The Patriots were a series that were somewhat easy to collect because there is not that many of them and people either like em or hate em. I started out not liking them but then they grew on me - like so many other GEC's that seem to find their way to my door!

Here are a few newbies, a #48 frame Scagel Fruitport Smooth Oiled Bone Clip Blade made by GEC, a Kauri Wood #57 Whittler, a Tidioute #54 Whittler in Brimstone Bone, a Bulldog EZ Open #25 in Abalone and a #65 Hogan in Red Wine Bone. The smooth bone on the Scagel feels really good in hand and I may actually carry this one. I had bought the Hogan to carry but I may get a Tidioute in Red Garnet bone to carry and save the Red Wine for the collection - can't decide, it's kinda big for an EDC though.

Tom,

I have not actually held one of those Scagels but they are a beauty of a knife and that one is an exceptional piece.

I thought GEC made a batch of Moose patern primitives? I don't see them advertised any where.

Jan, thats a beauty.

The smooth natural bone scales really do it for me and the fact that it's a proto, even better.
