"Well, I'd take some pics explaining what you mean by "scales turning green" and showing the corrosion on the backspring, as that will obviously decrease the value. Also consider estimating ru he pull on it. I know these older GEC 23s…"

Lots of stuff here. I used to collect toothpicks and traditional knives, but not anymore, so out they go. Most are unused or lightly carried, some have the boxes as well. I'll specify as I go down…Continue

First question is what kind of steel is this made of. Second is what do you think it's worth? I was surprised about the Queen Kansas knife I just posted, and since this is also a limited edition club…Continue

"Is the pull the same on the woodland micarta 23s as the beaver cherry ones? I just want a 23 I can open without pliers."
"Ok, I'll try not to watch anything that'll make me jumpy while working the blade! If I lose a finger, I'm mailing to you!"
"Does your friend work on other people's knives, too? I have the 23LL beavertail and it's a nail breaker. I bought a pouch, which I like, but its cumbersome for edc."

I decided to get a sheath for my 23 and treat it like a fixed blade. It'll save my thumb nail that way."

Got mine today. The pull is bad, but hoping it'll ease up over time"

"Congrats! Well I signed up at Frank's and Knives Ship Free, so hopefully will get some notification. Both have double bladed varieties available and that beaver tail is looking really good to me.
Does anyone have a photo of mesquite scales? If…"
"Those look great! Are they the double bladed ones? I'd love to get one of the single bladed ones but just discovering now how you have to consult the GEC ouija board to find out what's being released before it's a gleam in a knife…"
