This is my favorite type of video and I wish there were more of them....Kind of like the old Randy Johnson slipjoint collection videos. I could watch this all day. I like how you actually use the knives and dont baby them. This,in my opinion is how pocket knives should look. Most of mine are the same way. Every now and then i'll buff em up and start all over again to amuse myself. Enjoyed this very much.

Nice collection…… and good for you carrying your GEC’s….. and I must say the patina looks awesome 😊

I love that Winchester moose, thats slip joint perfection.

Some beautiful knives ya there fella. Thank you for the show and tell. ✝️😀✌🏼

Very nice great collection! Love traditional knives!!

I really enjoyed this video! I too will carry almost everything in my collection, it’s a collection but I don’t treat them like “collectibles” lol great video and great knives!

I don't know if you're aware this but, George Washington had a, Barlow knife, he used it for a letter opener and other small tasks it's on display at some historical American place. Barlow has been around since the 1600's. Thank you for the review it was very beneficial. 😎👍

I have a few flippers, assisted knives, that are kind of good for EDC but they are a little intimidating to some people even though they're legal but a slip joint pocket knife is just the right size to do most everyday tasks and slips easily into your pocket without you even knowing it's there. These knives take me back to memory lane. I remember the, Barlow knife I like the looks of it; it's a classic. They are only around $12-$15 a piece because they aren't the best quality knives made but for the price I could just buy 3 or 4 of them and they should last for years. 😂👍

My glitter gold TC is one of the only knives I’ve collected that I don’t carry. It’s so beautiful I keep it sitting on my dresser beside its tube. I would carry it but I know the acrylic would scratch and the luster would fade. You have a cool collection.

Man I really love the 5 knife with the bell that just looks like it would fell good in your hand looks like something I would set around and whittle with nice

I bought a carbon steel Case Sodbuster for $15. The people that had it were wanting to get rid of it so I got a really good deal on it. That has to be my favorite slip joint knife. I’ve been carrying it for the past few weeks and I really like it.

Great video! I really enjoyed the variety of your slip joints and your details about each one. I love that you have carried and used the knives which gives better details of what you liked and disliked about each.

I have a number of traditional slip joints, nothing as extensive as your collection. While I've tried my darndest to love them the way they deserve I just cant give up my SAK Farmer, which I've caryed since about 2007. That said, I'd still like to pick up a Shrade USA stockman, just cause thats what my grandfather used his whole life.

Swedges and a long pull look so good on a spear blade. I have the 15 glitter gold (not rose gold) and I think it’s my favorite carry traditional right now, has been in my back pocket for several months.

I’m so jealous of your 82 Dixie. I wanted that exact knife but it sold out before I could checkout. I settled for micarta.

So, there's a couple of important dates left, that you need to figure out what you want in your pocket, the day you propose and the day you get married, I can't tell you what was in my pocket on those days other than a collection like you have here, but I can tell you what was in my pocket the day my son was born, a large saw cut old timer stockman with a serrated shepsfoot

Awesome group of knives. That 44 in ebony has became one my top 5 favorite GEC knives. It's wasn't at first, but after having it a while the action is just so good. Love the video

Really really great video. So relaxing. I want to purchase a gec but way way over priced.

Really enjoyable video.thanks for sharing.atb paddy 😀

Those are great!

Yay...Im not a Trapper fanboy either, mainly because in a work environment or around customers you don't want to freak out any old ladies with huge clip point and it sucks to have only long blades where you may only need a sheepsfoot to cut tape on boxes if you're stocking shelves, I find the Med. Stockmans just seem to be right for just about every situation in a work environment . I dont work so that isn't a factor for me anymore, But I did just buy a jumbo Case Stockman 6375 in amber jig bone with a Case sheath

Been carrying the same Benchmade 910 for 23 years.

I have a Robert Klaas large coke bottle. Man fit and finish is up there with GEC almost. It was pricey $110 from a pipe dealer in Germany, but I have to say it was worth the money to me.

Beautiful knives, there's something about them🙂🔪👍

I don't know what my most carried slipjoint is, but my most carried knife in general is probably my modified opinel #8. I only own one GEC I don't carry it much, mostly because it isn't a very practical design.

Glitter .. Imagine that... Barlow is pretty cool though, minus the glitter. Lol.

I don't think you can carry that glitter gold handled knife in Florida! They might consider that drag!😆🤪

I always carry a slip joint and a modern folder

Nice lens on that camera.

"The German Sodbuster?" - No! The Sodbuster is the american version of a much older european knife pattern called Hippekniep in Germany or Le Mineur in France which was widely used all over europe. The migrants from the old continent brought these pattern to the colonies and renamed it. But centuries later.

Any link for used ,secon market of such kind of knife? Thanks for great video

You Americans are really nuts 🌰 about these knives,you buy them,show them and put them in the drawer,on the other hand I have SAK (Swiss Army Knife) and I use it whenever needed +Winchester and Mora Companion MG Carbon knife.. I have only One fancy knife,,,Buck 110 Alaskan Guide in S30V…plus 50 others 😂😂😂❤

Can we get an update for the past year?

21:10 perfect.

What brand knife are. These

1095 in the 80's? How old is the making of 1095?

You mean jacknife???

OK... Get on with it... Lol

Looks like faulty sharpening rather than cutting cardboard... 😮

Bro, all your knives are cool - ish... But not anything I'd pay over $20 for.... OK stuff, but nothing all that. I'd take a case-xxx, Buck,bench made, even an old timer over that stuff... Lol

GEC way over rated for the price. For the money they should 100% perfect. Get a rough rider for everyday carry. Just my opinion

Please adjust your equipment could hardly hear you

Yada, Yada, Yada... Waka, Waka, Waka...just talk about what matters... Not umm, ahh, umm, blah, blah blah... Ilmfao

I cringe every time you let a blade snap down. I never, ever, ever do that with any knife, dirt cheap or very expensive. I do collect Barlow knives, but only those with two blades. Just personal taste but I really don't like "Barlow" knives that have only one blade. I also collect Stockman and Trapper patterns. A Trapper, a real trapper, always has a clip point and a spay point, better known as a "skinning blade. A Trapper MUST have these two blades because they're made to be used by trappers and only those two point types are used when skinning furbearing animals. The clip point is used for cross cuts, tail cuts, and money cuts, and the skinning blade is used to peel the skin away from the body without damaging the pelt. I've seen "trapper" knives with one blade, and with the wrong two blades, but these are NOT Trapper pattern knives. They company ignorance knives. Likewise, unlike your "Dixie Stockman", a real Stockman MUST have a spay blade, or, again, a skinning blade. That's why it's called a Stockman in the first place. Stockmen used it to spay animals, and some trappers preferred it over a regular Trapper because of the added sheepsfoot. It's all personal taste, but I simply won't own a slipjoint that has only one blade. Might as well carry a modern flip knife. The usefulness of a slipjoint, to me, is that it has more than one blade, and each blade is best for its own task. I've never had a complaint at all with CaseXX knives. I greatly prefer them of GEC knives. In fairness, however, I only collect the Trapper and Stockman knives they've brought out, and every one has been perfect. Don't get down on the word "collector". Some collectors hide their knives away, but certainly all collectors do not. None of my collector friends do, and neither do I. I'm glad some collectors do hide their knives away, though, because those collections will eventually come on the market. I've picked up many of my favorite knives in mint condition because of such people. Personal taste, and maybe more how much and for what things you use a knife, but I wouldn't get ten cents for any modern single blade pocketknife. I wouldn't give a dime for all of them. They're just as useless as a single blade slipjpomt to me. But I really use knives, and never for cutting cardboard. That's what boxcutters are for. I carve with knives, I do bushcraft with knives, I skin animals with knives, on and on. This all requires more than one blade to do properly and efficiently. With one exception, if I have a job a slipjoint can't handle easily, I want a sheath knife. I do often replace my sheath knife with a Buck 110, which is one of the most important knives ever made. It was made to be a sheath knife you could carry anywhere without drawing attention, and that's just what it is. More deer have been skinned with the 110 than with any other single knife. My most carried slipjpint knife is the large CaseXX Stockman. It's as perfect as knives get for real work. Next comes an Old Timer Lumberjack, which is a tad bigger. Third would be an Ithica Barlow, for no good reason other than the sentimental attachment I have to it. On a real way, I guess it could be said that a Swiss Army Knife, a Hiker, is my most carried slipjopint because it is ALWAYS in my left poscket, regardless of the knife I carry in my right pocket. But I don't think of it as a pocketknife, and only use it when I need one of the tools.
