Knife started its life as a GEC 781224 woodland Sawcut Richlite.  Unfortunately the nail knicks were so close that opening the main blade was such a chore.  Saw Slipjoint_Spa on Instagram who does blade deletes.  Messaged him and shipped it off to delete the pen blade and spring.  Was going to keep the Richlite initially but after seeing some of his work I was dying to get the linen micarta he does.  I know a lot of you are looking for your first GEC, so altering one would just seem crazy, but for the rest of us who can never leave things stock, I highly recommend checking him out if you want something done.  Was completed in under a week.  Super thin profile now, perfectly centered, no blade wiggle, and love the micarta over the richlite.

My old trusted partner here. There are two GEC knives i go back to all the time and this is one of them. Fidget so much with it i think ill wear out the tang and spring lol.

Only saw bad reviews on this ..light pull but I’m digging it!

blue berries for blue patina, right?

knife is the Paper Clip from Red Oak Knives u/clontmong and it's excellent

To be honest, I can’t believe how much I like these Rough Rider knives🤷🏻‍♂️

I got both of these in today. A GEC 98 SFO in Chestnut jigged bone and a Rosecraft CC Trapper in rosewood. The trapper is my first Rosecraft and I've got to say that I'm very impressed with the F&F for the price. It's certainly a lot better than the last two Cases that I mistakenly ordered "sight unseen".
