LOL!! I was thinking the same thing. I had the coupon sitting on my desk and thought about it, but figured it might take too long. I did score a Micarta, so I'm happy.

Was fortunate enough to pick up a darker variation of the Giraffe Bone. These are gonna be some meaty bones

That kind of cart can be done, but unfortunately the developers that supply the shopping cart solutions are not interested. The available solutions provide two choices: either it vanishes via a snipe or stays there forever - and that's what retailers have to choose from. Even if you could find a developer who cares, justifying the cost to do it could be another obstacle - the dealers are not mega-stores. ...Best to move on.
...and one of those is using KSFs photos - a flipper whose been kicked off the BF before. Some things never change! (or will).
....and yes, it's time to move on to pics of the lucky ones!

Kudos to Kshipfree for posting these photos. Slow typing and errors and still somehow managed to bag a giraffe. Unbelievable. Not much choosing though. Scroll down, down, down, grab one without examining both sides, hunt, peck, add to cart, jump through the hoops, hope and a prayer, literally. And thanks to all you faster keyboardists and account shortcutters for NOT putting this one in your cart, or at least not snagging it out of mine. Thanks a bunch, really appreciate it, can't tell you how much it means. RIP Derrick B. Thankful.

So nice! Much better than the production photos in my opinion.

The sawcut pattern looks a little different than GEC's usual. More like Case's newer Barlow.

How strong are the springs on those new NW?
It is different, much more random with overlaps.
Springs are the same as the other 86’s. It has a different sound when closing I think because the saber grind muffles the sound.

That's pretty significant! I wonder how that escaped notice.

that is a fine one, even with all those pock marks in the handles.The blade flats seem to have more coloring than in the past, almost case hardened.

Thank you kindly. The color on the pile side flat couldn’t be nicer than If I had ordered it that way.
