Ah-oooooh! The Coyotes are here!

I look forward to seeing it. I like my osage coyote so much and plan to carry it daily as a little secondary knife that I was planning to get an oily as a backup. Then the brown camel bones were available and I jumped on that instead.

I went through great internal debate deciding between the Brown Camel and the Oily Creek. Having picked up a couple of camel Northwoods in the past, I opted for the Oily this time.

Great pic by the way.

So, is the 18 going to be fighting for pocket space with the blue 25 or can they all manage to get along?

Ah, I think you have me confused with Sarah (Pertinux) of the blue WLST fame. :D

This is my only camel bone knife, nor do I have any oil creek bone, so either one was to be something different. It feels denser and smoother than cow bone. I like it. :thumbup:
 
Doh!
See what I get for posting on a phone during work breaks...
Going to spend the next few minutes pulling my foot out of my mouth.
 
I'm looking forward to getting my oily creek bone Coyote. I shall post a pic with the jigged Coyote that I already have when it arrives!

My two arrived last week. They were ordered by mistake - I thought I had ordered Beagles but must have gotten the names confused - both tidioutes;



I'm not really a fan of single blade knives and the wharncliffe is not my preferred choice so I sent them off two a couple of worthy forumites :)

Wouldn't call myself "worthy," but I sure am excited! Will be lots of firsts: essentially my first bone handles, first Wharncliffe blade, and first PPP (which happen to be my initials) GEC! Photos for this thread (and others) when it's in hand. I've said it privately, but thanks a million, Paul!

While I wait for it, I've been enjoying the photos everyone has posted so far. The plan is for the 18 to be an everyday carry (read primary pocketknife) along with a Victorinox Manager. I could get by with the Manager, but I like pretty, little things (and functional to boot)!
 
The oily creek bone is yummmmmy!

Ruined Easter......?:rolleyes::grumpy::D

Enjoy your Yotes and time off everyone:thumbup:

Mournfully, Will

My brown camel bone from KSF arrived today.

Loving the subtlety of the dye on these. I also find the camel bone to be amazing worry stone material. And to think if you hadn't gotten one I probably wouldn't have found the one I did.

Hey, I can do that too. :D

Amazingly generous, but you should have given at least one of those wild little pups a chance. They have a way of changing minds. :o :cool:

Did the Tidioute's only come with the buttons? Only curious....

Both of mine did. I am not quite clear on the Northfields, or the other SFOs (camel bone is a KSF SFO), but I've read in other GEC threads in the past that "swag" like that doesn't always make it into every tube. YMMV. :)

And now I'm waiting on an Oily Creek bone to ship...
I really like the size and look of the Coyotes as a secondary knife. I might have gone a little overboard with them. Maybe.
(Ô.ô)
I'll post a pic when the Oily arrives.

The oily creek bone is an absolute gem, from the early photos. I promised myself no more until the #98s are out.

Steady...

Steeeeaaaaaady...

:grumpy:

My plan was the same as yours: I was going to use the osage all the time (it's already got bolster "character" :D) and leave the bone for the safe, but once I got my fingers on it things changed. :o

That it is! The first run of #18s is turning out to be an unmitigated triumph! :thumbup:

That's a crying shame, Will! The complexities of international shipping of knives cut both ways, unfortunately. I'm still trying to get my hands on a bronze Mercator. I hope you get a nice Easter surprise in the next day or two.

(Doesn't it seem like there haven't been all that many Micarta 'yotes posted? I often get the impression that a lot of folks on the porch love their Micarta.)
 
are we allowed to post the retailer name here? It's detailed on the #18 Coyote page on the GEC website. They have plenty left (someone told me. My wife is reading over my shoulder :) )
 
Well, here's mine. I haven't carried them yet, and can't decide which one is first, for its week.
