I love the yellow Rose. It's one of my favorite scales that GEC has done. I only have the smooth bone YRs, but I like the jigged bone too. 

It's a really rich yellow that can and does age with pocket time. It makes for a nice piece while out on a hike as well, those yellow scales beam. Good luck on your choice, but it sounds like you are on the right path.

Those are some good shots. guys. Thank you very much. Now....what handle material to get. How are you guys liking the Yellow Rose? And do you have any experience with the Looking Glass?

Good shot Johnny.

Alexander,

Johnny is right. The spear blade on the iKC #72 makes it stand taller vertically but the #72 is a much slimmer knife. Here are a few more pics. I found that I like the Cattler Baron more than I like the Cattle Rancher because the secondary blades (sheepsfoot I think) sits down better on the Baron and on the Rancher it seems to dig into my fingers more. I thought that it would be the opposite but that was not the case.

Ignore the horrible photography. There is a good size difference in this two knives, but length isn't as noticeable as width and weight.

Alexander, I will get on it and see if I can't have pics done in a few hours. I have the same frame as a Cattle Baron, but no Baron itself.

Great choice though!!!

Great review Scott, I really enjoyed it.

Hi people, the IKC knife is my first GEC.

I really like it a lot and I've been considering getting my second GEC knife. The one I'm looking at is the GEC Cattle Baron. I was wondering about the size though. Does someone have (or could someone take) a picture of the IKC knife next to one of these badboys? (or to a knife of similar size?)

Thanks a bunch

Alexander
