Let's talk Northwoods

[Elgatodeacero]

The internet is going to break!

You beat me to it...Lookout Jack?

 

[Rhinofly]

Anyone know who made these?

Anyone know who made these?

The Northwoods Knives brand is synonymous with high-quality, rock-solid, American-made knives. Dave Shirley founded Northwoods over 30 years ago, focusing on recreating designs and patterns that have been favored for generations. And when KnivesShipFree bought the company from Dave, we promised to continue building top-shelf knives -- beautiful tools meant to be used.

We've teamed with respected makers to produce our Northwoods knives. They're striking to the eye, they feel good in the hand and they're not afraid of work. We've brought innovation to kitchen knives, as well as traditional folding knives, making a Northwoods affordable without sacrificing the beauty and quality that make a classic knife.

For anyone quick enough to notice at the time, GEC accidentally released the production totals for these a while back...but then quickly removed it.

Ironwood for sure, based on the wrongly entered production totals from last year should also be a blue camel bone.
Jay confirmed made by GEC.

Any hints of cover options?

I did not see that. Good catch!

 

[Rhinofly]

Blue camel bone? Yes. The internet is definitely going to break.

Is that on the #73 or #83 frame? Either way, it does not excite me in the least.

 

[Blades of Glory]

And here I didn’t have anything planned for Wednesday. Stare at the clock all day and make sure I’m looking for the correct time zone, check

Pretty sure it’s on the 23

 

[LastRodeo]

Pretty sure it’s on the 23

That seals it, not interested.

 

[bax229]

My 23s have nail breaking springs. No thanks

 

[Alpha556]

73 or 83 frame would be interesting. 23 is just a lil too big for my tastes.
I'm sure they'll still sale out plenty fast.

 

[Jiki]

4.45 inches closed. It's a 23.

Ironwood and Blue Camel Bone is what they listed in the production totals.

Ironwood and Blue Camel Bone is what they listed in the production totals.

I wonder if they did a couple other covers this year (that didn't show up in last year's totals)? Seems like there is usually a mammoth option on NW drops.

I'm really happy to see that Northwoods is still alive and kicking and even happier that GEC was willing to make them some knives.

I like it and it's been a spell since I've gotten my blood racing trying to score a knife, I am going to give it a go. The 23s are premium examples of GEC's craftmanship and I'd be thrilled to get one in that is single blade, doesn't have a tricky liner lock, and is in all steel construction.

Love Northwoods but this is not my favorite. I’ll still try for an ironwood but if the spring is a bear trap it’ll go on the sales forum.
