I'll be glad to share a picture with you Johnny.

Robert, we cooked it a lot like you would venison or beef. There are some tough spots, but it's nothing a slow roast won't take care of.

Those #85s are looking stellar, anyone have one they want to share?

 

I'll get one, later in life though.

If anyone is looking for missing peices or 2007 in any of the three GEC labels.  Check out this site...We have done business with Kenny for many years.  Great person to work with.  Has some great 2007 knives

Dont forget the Wounded Warrior Project this Veterans Day

 

Veteran's Day Wounded Warrior Project Auction Starts TODAY!!!

Can't think of a better way to honor our Vet's than to have another Wounded Warrior Project Auction right before Veteran's Day which is coming up Friday, November 11.  In an effort to give everyone interested a chance to bid, the auction starts today November 7 and ends Saturday, November 12 at Noon CST. 

I'm offering a rather rare Northfield 620211 Easy Pocket Congress finished in Southwest Turquoise Acrylic.  I believe only 6 of these were  made, all without serial numbers.  It's a great looking handle material on this knife!





To place a bid, simply Leave a Comment to this post with your bid amount.  100% of the proceeds will go to the Wounded Warrior Project which is one of my personal favorites.  They do a tremendous job helping our returning wounded vets.  Whether you're interested in bidding or not, please pass the word on to your friends and fellow collectors.  With past auctions, there have been a number of people that made a contribution to the  Wounded Warrior Project even though they didn't bid and that's great.  I encourage everyone interested in bidding to get your bid in early and don't wait for the deadline so leave a comment now with your bid!!!

Bear season starts in a little over two weeks, usually it's an exciting time for my brother and I, but this year it will prove to be a bit hectic. I will be heading up to the GEC woods, our camp is with in an hours drive of this beloved factory, so thats always a cool thought for me. I will go through some serious trials in deciding who all will make the trip with me this year.

So far it looks like this,

Elk Stag #72 as primary hunting knife.

Smooth Tidioute dogleg as primary pocket knife.

Red Wine will be in the back pocket at all times, ready for work. 

I always bring a fixed blade along in a pack, this year it will be the Donnie special. I have not posted pics of this knife yet, I have been saving it and it's debut for a special occasion. I think a trip to the mountains will prove to be full of picture opportunities and it may be a very memorable trip. So be ready for a few pics when I get back. 

 

I would normally be taking my #73L with me, but alas it's still at the spa. I hope it didn't tattle and say I abuse it. : ) This knife has been with me every hunting season since I got it, unfortunately we may miss this one together. I have more than enough knives to replace it, but this one is special to me and it's worth waiting for.

GEC, I am definitely with Johnny on this one. I sent Ryan a pic of a decent one from Ebay last week. I have several wonderful camp style knives. Some are true camp knives, others are engineers utility knives from WWII era. I have them all on the album covers of my photo albums on my page here on iKC. I have them made by Case, Boker, Camillus, A.G. Russell, Western, Schrade, Ulster, Kingston, etc. If you would like I would be happy to send you what I have and you can take em apart and use them as templates (as long as you pin em back together). I know that you will do a better job than any of these other makers have. I already have kids but my youngest son's first knife was a Boker Barlow, followed by a Swiss Army knife. It's about time he got a REAL AMERICAN CAMP KNIFE. Thanks GEC! P.S. Doesnt have to have much snap but half stops to protect the little fingers would be good.
