5 knives up right now-

First is a modified nessmuk pattern skinner/utility. .095 15N20 steel, differentially tempered with a convex grind. cutting edge is 4 1/8 inches with an overall length of 8 inches. The basic design came from a custom order I did for Andy Mills, I added a few minor changes to transfer from paper to steel. Contoured and downward curved handle shape- very comfortable to hold onto an use.

Handle is jatoba with brass pins, finish is 3 coats of tung oil, hand rubbed. Sheath is a Koyote Girl pouch in brown, fully double needle hand stitches on all seams. I took photos before the sheath was done, but everyone knows her sheaths are amazing! (essentially the same as the second knife in the post)

Asking $110 including shipping in the US. As always, if you have a paid membership to BF, take $10 off- if you don't, a basic membership is only $10! I can work with paypal, money order or check for payment on any knife. Military and LEO discounts, inquire.

A hunter/utility with a broad clip, differentially heat treated 15N20 with a narrow convex grind. Jatoba handle scales and 3/16 pins. OAL 8 inches with a 3 7/8 blade, this is an excellent hiker or hunter's utility knife. This style works very well for game processing and has a lot of handle to hold onto for a smaller knife.

Sheath is fully double needle stitched, double seamed, formed leather- by Koyote Girl.

Asking $105 including shipping, standard $10 discount for paid memberships. Paypal, check, or money order is ok. Military and LEO discounts, inquire.

Trailing point hunter utility. This one has a 5 inch + blade of .095 15N20 steel, differentially tempered with a very fine angled convex grind. The steel finish is left fairly rough, but a bit shinier than most of the forge finish blades. It's a bigger knife, with a 5.125 inch handle and an overaal length of 10 3/8 inches. Handle scales are ipe with brass tubing pins front and rear. Integral semi-guard and raised thumbramp will keep you hands on the handle through any amount of mess.

Sheath is double needle stitched, double seamed, and as with all of Koyote Girl's work, completely hand done.

Asking $120, regular $10 discount for paid memberships. Shipping in the US is included. Paypal, check, money order all OK. Military and LEO discounts, inquire.

Palm skinner. Bocote wood handle, very fat and rounded, with 3/16 brass pins. The blade has a slight trailing point and is differentially tempered 15N20 - .085 thick, with a fine edged convex grind. Blade is 3.25 inches and the overall length is 6.5 inches.

Comes in a full flap leather sheath, as always double needle hand stitched and waterformed.

Asking $100 including shipping - $10 discount if you have a paid forum membership (memberships start at $10, so this is a no brainer) and paypal, checks, money orders are all okay

Those are all great! I really like the larger trailing point hunter/utility! I think the overall measurement is off though? Should be a bit over 10"?

Thanks,

Walter
 
Yer right! fixed the measurement- my daughter likes to practice counting whenever I sit at the computer......
 
Great work Cristof! Bout time you put up some knives over here!

I wish I had some extra doe.....
 
Man, your knives and sheaths are looking fantastic lately...I might have to get into some soon! Really, the sheaths are fantastic..great prices too!
 
Wow that Nessie is really distinctive. I love the handle shape and how its positioned!
 
I'll mark it sold- email is being buggy right now but I'll reply as soon as it settles down.
 
Christof, I got the Necker today and it was worth the wait. I am also very pleased with how the sheath fits the knife, I really like it when a knife "clicks" into place in a sheath. My compliments to Koyote Girl. John
 
Thanks!

Koyote Girl really is doing good on the sheaths. Conforming small profile neckers can be a rough one to do, too.
