how much did the Mammoths sell for? By the time I got to the page they were gone.

$220.

I'm a sucker for micarta, so the choice was easy for me. Glad I was able to pick up the last GEC Northwoods model being made for the foreseeable future.

why do several of you keep saying this? where are you getting that they won't be making them?

Managed to nab a mammoth and an awesome yellow camel bone today!

Here my first and only Northwoods I have/will have. Did not get to look at pictures long the first 4 I tried for sold during checkout, but scored no.57. It appears to have a bunch of little holes in the scales especially on the back.... Is this normal?

Is this normal?

I have a kudu bear lake and it has the same holes. I think it has something to do with the way they stabilize the bone. Air bubbles in the epoxy maybe???

Both the giraffe and camel in those greens and forest greens look goooooood!

GEC stated a while back they were suspending all SFOs. This was taken to mean all knives they make for other companies as well. No one knows if it's a temporary halt, or permanent. GEC hasn't confirmed.

Northwoods knives may continue to be made, but it's possible they will be made from another knife manufacturer other than GEC.

Yes, in hindsight I would have gone for one but I went in dead set on a yellow

Knowing a member missed out on the yellow camel bone so some jerkoff can try to sell it for $450 on the auction site really chaps my hide. For what it's worth, the listing was reported and pulled for not having the knife in their possession before trying to sell it.

I tried for several, at check out they were gone. Then when I finally got to a point that checkout was working I got a Apple Pay address mismatch problem. No luck today be but It was fun to try.

Thank you. I am stoked for sure. Couldn't believe it. Tried for 2 and got 2. Lucky day today.

I really wasn't expecting the Kudu to look so phenomenal! Absolutely gorgeous stuff! I can't bring myself to buy knives in giraffe bone, but I'm definitely adding kudu to my list of cover material I gotta own.

I'm also really happy to see how well the pins ended up on all of these so far! It seems like I see a lot of cracking when companies work with really old, natural material like mammoth. Two thumbs up!

Keep posting those pics so I can live vicariously through you guys, lol.

I was in a rush missed one so I had to get something. Lol.
