Wow. This is great for viewing and as an archive of D.S.Northwoods. Thanks Rick, Mitch & Kennedy.
Anyone know how many different patterns Dave Shirley used in his Northwoods line ?
And how many handle materials ? I know of D.S. Northwoods with elephant ivory, mammoth, Stag, jigged bone. Are there more ?

I forgot to add these to this Thread. Dave Shirley also produced a Northwoods Scagel line of Knives that were Pretty Cool!

Mitch you are Mr. Scagel Northwoods. Wow, what a great collection of these knives you have.
Are you able to list all of the Scagel patterns that Dave Shirley had made ? I am trying to get this thread to be an authorative source for information about Dave Shirley Northwoods & Scagel knives.
Did D.S. consider the Scagels as part of his Northwoods knives ? He used the same shield but "Northwoods" is not marked on the Scagel knives.
I had a large single blade Scagel Jack which i carried & used. I regret selling it and now these Scagel folders are hard to find.

KJ, Don't have a complete list of DS Patterns. Back in the day, I would buy Dave's knives by phone and later online when he had a model available. As far as his Scagel reproductions, they were always called Northwoods Scagel Knives, so I consider them Northwoods as well!

Thanks for posting those Mitch! They are beautiful!

Here's a couple more Scagels.

Regular Jack

Rick, Very Nice!

"they were always called Northwoods Scagel Knives"
Thanks Mitch. So Scagel knives are correctly being shown here in the Dave Shirley Northwoods thead.
I had one of the Scagel fixed blades, antler handle and a thin upswept blade. Again, wish i had held onto it.
