Got home today after grueling 13 hours on the road to a pleasant surprise, my first Koyote blade:thumbup: I apologize for the crappy pics, I'll post better outdoor shots soon (maybe Koyote has better ones too...), but here she is:

17" of 1/4 Koyote ground steel in a K-girl sheath. This thing is a beast! Can't wait to get her outside this weekend:

I just picked up one of these on the exchange yesterday. I know what you mean it is one big & beautiful knife. I hope you have fun with that big ol beast.
 
man.. that thing is bad a$$...:eek: i like it.:D. awesome sheath too... congrats..:thumbup:
 
Whoaaa. That... is some serious steel. Any legionnaire would have loved to carry that. Great sheath, too. Also like the San Mai necker.

DB - It has a medieval look doesn't it. I just got the Becker too, I'll be posting some info on that soon too, first observation is that it takes a great edge though

It's funny how that works. I used to be in the woods every day and dreamed of blades like this, now I can go only get out on week-ends (too much work), and have them.....
 
The original blade idea is off of a spearpoint style norse langeax. I've messed with it plenty, but that's the basis.

I've had a lot of comparisons to the gladius, and I don't think the two styles are that far off.

Man, I keep being surprised by what people do with this grind. Christian was making fuzz sticks with his! That pepper really ....died well. :D
 
It's like a samurai and a machete made sweet love. And then Koyote girl spent twelve days on a sheath for the progeny.
 
Damn that's a beauty...and the sheath gives me dirty thoughts. Oy, I need a life.

Down in a secluded area along the Chattahoochee River where I hunted, trapped, and fished when I was young I used to roam the woods for miles imagining long ago times and dreaming of blades like that...never did get one though...maybe someday I'll do it anyway . That thing is so sweet it has me dreaming again lol :) .
 
Holy Crap that is nice. That is going on the list.

I was sharpening my Koyote wilderness model last night, gave it a workout while camping with the scouts recently. My son has been reading The Rangers Aprentice series recently and wants a seax.

Father-son package...
