Buying the latest Northwoods from KSF

Sooo. I just got my Little Bays! They were supposed to be here on Saturday but got lost along the way somewhere.. needless to say I was concerned. o_O

I absoloutley love these little guys. I had been looking for a bullet Jack but didn't feel like spending $400 for 1 bullet Jack.. :confused: but this model is absolutely what I had been looking for!! I am so happy I'm truly elated :D

Overall the buying process is fair I suppose. I do wish a couple things. I wish this was at a time that most people are off of work and have the time just to compete with everyone else. And to make it eastern time, central and pacific time zones it's almost like a kick in the pants having it at 2pm in he afternoon. I also wish they had more stock available to purchase. I am sure there are other contributing factors as to why not, but it'd be cool for the knife community. And it'd sell.

With all that said, when you do get to snag one with this process it does somewhat add to the experience and cements that you have a special collector piece vs. maybe another easier to attain knife. BUT I say that with a conscience, and I do feel sympathetic for other people in the community that really wanted one to own and just came up short.

I got the "Keep Calm and Carry Knives" sticker. I wonder how many there are?

Been some mention of a new Northwoods on the 15 frame over in the "GEC" thread. Anybody have any new news?
 
One thing I am noticing is that the Little Bays are not selling very well one the exchange. The Tidioutes and Northfields are selling much more rapidly. I know the Little Bays are expensive from KSF, but do you think there is a little bit of a boycott on them?
 
I would say no. The bays are just more expensive. Unless you really want the Northwoods, the others can be had for cheaper.

Not sure but I feel like this Northwoods run was a little pricier (relative to the GEC equivalents) so people aren't getting the same markup as in the past. A micarta little jack was over $50 higher than a micarta Tidioute.
