I don't often visit this sub-forum, but I love handmade knives and tools and so I thought I'd share a picture of a few of the Koyote knives that have found their way onto my shelf.
I love using handmade knives; they have more character. Using a handmade knife provides a small connection with a craftsman or artist and makes the world seem like a more personal place. A handmade knife or tool seems to have a story and a bit of identity. I've never met Christof, but he's been great to work with and seems like a helluva nice guy.
Anyway, here are a couple of my Koyote knives.
All three are users. The top has buffalo horn scales which I just love. The center is a Bird and Trout design and one of the handiest knives I've used. In fact, it could probably be the only knife I ever really need. The bottom is a drop-edge Wharncliffe design made from an old-saw blade and even older fossilized ivory. Might be the sharpest knife I own.
I'd love to see some other Koyotes, so post up!
