Thanks Ken, don't have a lot of GEC's but have a couple. I certainly enjoy them and enjoy whittling.

- Thanks Ken for the welcome. I am new to the more traditional knives collecting, but man those GEC patterns and builds look awesome. I can not wait to get my hands on some. Thanks

Thank you Ken, I was given a Great Eastern a couple of years ago for Christmas and at that point was not familiar with the brand. The one I got was a Farm & Field tool and what it lacked in looks it more than made up for in quality. I use it weekly if not daily for various tasks around my shop, primarily for cutting open FedEx boxes and the like. Then last year the same person got me a Blade Forums #35 "Double End Harness Jack" Limited Production model. I must say it's a stunner in burnt orange worm groove bone. I will admit I tend to look at this one more than I use it. Prior to getting these, my favorite all-time carry knife was (and still is) my WW2 Camillus Navy knife, one that was a rusted-up, broken-tipped basket case when I got it. After welding a new tip on it, refinishing the pitted and rusted blade, and oiling it up good, it makes a fine 75-year old daily carry knife. I was telling somebody else on your page that I ate a thick steak with it just yesterday. While my favorite knife is the old Camillus (for the same reason you love that one-eyed dog you throw in the truck and take home and feed), the Great Eastern line is my favorite line overall..

Thanks for the add. Don't have any GEC knives (yet), but am hoping for a TC Barlow one of these days, will be watching.

Thank you Ken. I appreciate the hospitality here.
Might take me a while to figure out all the bells & whistles to navigate this place, but I will get there.
