I recently got this Traditional Lock back GEC knife in a trade with YetAnotherGearChannel. I really enjoy his channel and I think you will too! Check him out at:
The Great Eastern Cutlery, GEC Wall Street 990118 is a great looking traditional locking knife produced by Great Eastern Cutlery, GEC in 2018.
It is a Great Eastern Cutlery, GEC branded traditional knife, meaning that it comes in a 440c stainless steel and features the Cyclops Steelworks tang stamp.
The GEC 99 Wall Street is a pretty large traditional knife measuring 6 3/4'' total with a 3'' blade and a 3 3/4'' handle.
The Wharncliffe blade is really nicely executed and features a full flat grind, false hand drawn swedge and a billboard that reads 'GEC Practical Knives.
Over all the knife is a really attractive knife and GEC did a great job on the 99 Wall Street. The burnt orange springfield bone covers look great with really cool looking colors and deep, very well done jigging.
The overall fit and finish of this Great Eastern Cutlery, GEC 99 Wall Street is almost perfect, but not quite. It has great transitions between the bolsters/ cap and the covers, no gapping in the back spring and perfect centering. The action is super smooth and opens with a nice positive click. There is no side to side blade play on this knife but it does have the slightest bit of front to back play when the knife is in the locked position. This is not a deal breaker, i do think the lock on this 99 Wall Street by GEC is perfectly adequate, but it is the one detail that keeps this knife from being perfectly executed.
I think the Great Eastern Cutlery, GEC 99 Wall Street is a really good looking and fully functional Traditional pocket knife and I look forward to using and enjoying it!!
