No, Bark Elephant Ivory, which I guess you could call primitive bone - just higher up on the skeleton just not a cow.

Here's the new #65 Sambar. Serial # is 27, my daughter's birthday. Considering giving it to her, but we'll see

Looking good Dana! Big knife for your daughter though? I would be happy if my folks bought me some Genuine Stag! I have been trying to find just the right knife for my wife. I had one picked out but someone snapped it up before I did. I was looking at a #62 Pocket Whittler in acrylic but then wanted to buy one for myself too. I might just have to give her one of my non-GEC's to make it easy (and cheaper). That way I won't wince every time she doesn't use it the way that I think that she should or if she gets it all scratched up or loses it! If you give it to her I hope that you are better at being hands off at knife giving than I am! Good Luck!

Yes, very true. She is a novice, and this is my only #65 to date.

Dana, I think the Hogan is too much knife. But, thats my opinion, I have one and it's a pretty big pocket piece. I think that maybe a Templar, or a Geppetto would be better. 

Tom, I was gonna say I've never seen primitive bone that nice. I love those scales, on both knives. The Spear is a little less nice, but still very awesome.

I've been eyeing GEC knives for ages, but since getting the iKC knife I just gad to get another one. So I ordered me a #12 Powderhorn Northfield from TSAknives and it arrived today. Now if only I could find a way to capture that gorgeous white pearl in a photo.........

Speaking of going off the deep end...I just posted some pics of a few new additions that showed up at my doorstep on my page/GEC photo album #4. Darn mailman won't quit bringing these GEC's! You guys are a bad influence on me I think! May be about time for an intervention - just gave me an idea for a new reality show....Here are a couple new ones that I enjoyed...

Tom,

Congrats on the knives the Mammoths are rare and beautiful.  PS...dont you dare give her anything but a GEC (LOL)

Dana,

I do have to agree with the guys.  I love the Ben Hogan pattern but as a lady, dont carry one due to the size.  So I would guess it matters if you are starting her collection or buying a practical user.  I have carried the 66 mink a number of times.  It is a good fit , not too heavy, not too big for either the pocketbook or the pocket and great blades.

Is that Mink getting a patina??? 

Sure looks good to me Jan.
