Just enter a comment to this post and make your best guess as to what the new knife will be. All entrants will be entered and a drawing held when the knife is released!!!
Good luck.

I am guessing it is a spinoff of the #66 pattern - 2 blade - with a clip master, and a variety of smaller blade types on the other end......all on a single backspring. Just guessing.

My guess is an equal-end pattern similar to the 53, except smaller; in wharncliffe (furtaker) trapper configuration.

GEC could use a cokebottle or swell center pattern in their lineup.

I guess I need to post to get in on the contest.
I don't think it will be the mink pattern with new blades. I don't think they would change the number for that. Even though they did do the 53/54 and 72/73 number changes. Those were only one number off each time and I believe it must have been done to differentiate similar model numbers whose main blade was the same.
The venerable #53 pattern has all manner of blade combinations, as does the #73. So I am going to rule out a mink variation as my guess.
The 56/66 seems to be a clue since the numbers are 10 off. But nothing comes to mind.
I will guess an equal end 3.5" jack with main clip and small sheepsfoot.
Have we ever determined how the pattern numbers are derived?

Your doing as good as anyone deciphering the models. Your guess is as good as anyone's!
