GEC's #73 pattern has been ringing my bell for a while. This particular Tidioute edition is a perfect example of why I love this pattern. The size, shape and overall ergonomics just work perfectly for me.

An interesting note about the knife shown in the photo; Some of GEC's acrylic scale designs are simply breathtaking....and while this is one such example, the polished rear bolster puts this knife over the top and is an extra detail that you would think as restricted to the upscale Northfield line.
