I was able to grab a Kudu on my third try, sure wish you could go back and take a second look at the knife you bought. Guess I'll just have to wait until it shows up. They sure went fast!

I've only ever bought micarta with Northwoods, but I really like the look of stag with the rustic blade so I snagged this one. I like the bit of orange in it. I was thinking about the Kudu but figured those would get snatched up quick, and I know I would have been picky about the look of it.

I was going to sit this round out but popped in for a look and really wanted one of those discounted factory second Kudus but they were gone in a flash -- this is probably why they threw in some Mammoth to make up for the defectives. I did grab a smoked burlap but fully expect to find the knife too big for my liking but I've never handled that scale material before and wanted to check it out -- not like I won't be able to unload it if I decide not to keep it.

I don't think you'll find it too big unless you like really small knives. I may be mistaken but I thought I read somewhere that these are 3 1/2 inches closed but look much larger in the pics.
 
What is Curaco burlap? I mean does Curaco refer to the manufacturer of the burlap? I've not seen that on a Northwoods folder before, but I may be mistaken. Looks much like the similar large weave burlap micartas they've used before.
