Great Eastern Cutlery GEC #728226 NF – Carbon Steel French Creek Trapper Continental Blue India Jigged Bone

The original Northfield Knife Company was incorporated and operated in Connecticut from 1858 to 1926. Their UN-X-LD branded knives are highly collectible today. In 2006 Great Eastern Cutlery registered the unused Northfield UN-X-LD trademark, strictly to be used on only the most premium GEC traditional pocket knives.

These new classic UN-X-LD knives have all the intricate cosmetic tooling and finishing you would expect to see on well made early 1900’s era pocket knives. The back springs and blades are strictly made with 1095 carbon steel, with all the blades stamped marked and finished to a mirror polish. The master blades are fitted with forged straight nail pulls and cut swaging. All the bolsters are coined and typically decorated with dimples, lines and angled cuts. The handle covers are processed here at the GEC Bone Works and are of exotic materials such as India Stag Antler, Woolly Mammoth Ivory, Cocobolo Wood, Snake Wood, and North American Cattle Bone with intricately cut textured surfaces.

The new Northfield UN-X-LD knives rival the originals in materials and craftsmanship. Because of their quality and value they have become the most collectible factory knife made today.
