Great Eastern #83

Likely our favorite lockback made by Great Eastern Cutlery, the Tacosa is a perfectly shaped and sized knife that just exudes style and refinement.  This hot little number looks good in natural and synthetic covers and one of DLT’s favorites is the Texas Rose configuration.  Measuring 3.375” closed, carrying the GEC #83 is a snap.  With a good, full lockback the knife locks up tight for safety in a variety of cutting situations.  If you’re looking for a super easy to carry lockback or a perfect first knife for a youngster or if you just love traditional slipjoints built better than any other production slippie on the planet we suggest you look at the Great Eastern #83 Tacosa Lockback.  This knife like all GEC knives is 100% made in the USA.

Great Eastern Cutlery knives are hand produced in Titusville, Pennsylvania by craftsmen and women in limited quantity batches, typically once a year. Once these patterns sell out there is an indeterminate period before Great Eastern Cutlery produces the pattern again.
