To clarify further "ioute" is one syllable pronounced "yoot" or "ute" or "yout" (all the same)Tid-ioute, a two syllable word.

Tid dee yoot,three sylables,a native american name.

Has anyone heard any big GEC news for this summer? Except for their Rondevous. They must have some plans on a special knife or something like that. We need to hear some exciting news and get us all out of this winter time boredom.

Well I'm not bored with 3 new GEC's on the way.

My Mom passed away this month and I think it's fitting that I'm getting 2 Black  GEC sunfish. One from Alan (the Luca Buffalo Sunfish) and a nice black ebony Watch Pocket from Bruce's website (Doc's Knife works)

Dana, our sympathies go out to you and your family. Best wishes to you.

Thanks all, Correction I have now 3 Black GEC's this month with the addition of another Tid-ioute watch pocket Black Buffalo from Bruce. In memory of Mom

Tid DEE Yoot

Has everyone seen the Whats Happening today?

#66 Moose spear blades ready to be blade ground.

Dana,

We certainly wish your family peace as you move forward, our prayers are with you all.  Losing a parent is certainly difficult.  The Blacks will always remind you of her and that is wonderful

Thanks Jan!

Jan, Where is the "Whats Happening today" link?

Here ya Go Dana,

What's at the end of the Hall? Looks Like Paul  Bunyan to me....

Thanks Alan and Jan. Got it and bookmarked it.

Yep, I've seen those 66's what's up with them spear blades.

I'd like to see nail nicks added to those

I got excited when I got the news of a Moose in production until I realized, I just got one that size in stag. What I'm really looking for is a 54 Moose in Primitive Bone.

That would be very nice, the #54 would look great with some beautiful age old primitive bone. 

I can't find out, are they making some #66 Moose patterns and if they are, then in what handle materials. I'm looking to get a small moose for a user in wood or bone. I'm fired up, finally, a Moose!

Robert,

This is what I see from one of the distributors:

#66 – Moose – Big Clip and Big Spear

Tidioute – Smooth Bolsters
Spring Green Bone
Ebony Wood
Tomato

Northfield – Lined Slanted Dimpled Bolsters
Southwest Turquoise Acrylic
Cocobolo Wood

Northfield – Straight Lined Dimpled Bolsters
Blood Red Bone
Burnt Stag
Genuine Stag
Primitive Bone

Jan, I see the Primitive Bone Calf Ropers are up on GEC's new release page!

That will do just fine, I'd like one in Cocobolo. After all this time and all the knives I've been through, I don't have one in Cocobolo. I have a bunch in wood just not that one. I wanted another small moose to use when I wear shorts in the summer. Thanks Tom.

Dark%20Front.JPGLight%20back.JPG I just received this Northfield #36 in burnt stag . The handles are different shades. What do y'all think?

I LOVE-EM!

Thanks Clint. I was considering returning it, thinking it was mismatched. But I really do like each piece.

Dana,

I really like them also, gorgeous scales.

Robert,

Still crossing my fingers for a 54 moose for you

Tom,

Already on the way (LOL) 

Lets see if I can get this picture layout right this time. Nice or mismatched?

Miss Jan, are they gonna make some 66 moose patterns?

http://greateasterncutlery.net/blog/information/whats-happening-jan...

According to the What Happening today, they are building parts for one

I saw that today but that doesn't tell me exactly what their making. I did see the name Moose, so thats got me hanging on...lol

Sorry Robert,

Go look at these 66 Mooses

Robert,

The post that I put up earlier was from Collector Knives early reservation page. Seems pretty clear what Mooses will be made.

Yeah, we have a Moose on the way. I wouldn't mind picking one up, but I keep looking at the #66 jacks and I don't know, they look really good.

A few Knife pics.

One more. The Buffalo Horn duo.

Dana,

In the pic of the knives on the blue and white towels (below) that Spyderco stands out like a guy eating a cheeseburger at a vegetarian convention!

You have some very drool-worthy knives, my friend!

Cheers!

Ron, Good analogy. I do have a more appropriate drawer for that Spyderco Military.

But the Spyderco is enjoying the company

Dana, you got a nice collection for sure. I don't buy as many Case knives as I once did, but they still make a better pocket knife than I do. : )

Those Backpockets interest me, but don't tell GEC. LOL

Well Johnny, Case was my 1st love

Also Johnny, those back pockets have that abrupt half stop. It will suprise you if your not expecting it.

Dana, I have a good friend who has one and I got to play with it for a while. I really do like the knife, I may end up with one someday.

Dana, looks to me like you got yourself a beauty from the #36 Buffalo Horn Sunfish run we did last year, lucky you. I hope you enjoy it's infinite wonders. I know it's just a knife, but the possibilities are endless, right?

Luca, I agree totally. There is something infinite about an edge.

Dana,

Nice looking #36 & #26!

Ron,

Look on GEC's web site & look under patterns. Click on the picture of the first one and it will have a date. Some of the really old patterns don't have the date on the picture though.

or look at the production total lists under information

Hi all, I have a repair question. Is it possible to raise the kick of a knife that closes to low in the frame?
