Re: The collection is growing
Greg, If my math is right you are adding 1 Northwoods every 2 days (8 knives in 17 days) so this time next year you should have about 210 Northwoods in your collection. Is it time for an intervention?gsmith7158 wrote:31 now Roland.kootenay joe wrote:I count 23 Northwoods, but post is 17 days old. How many Northwoods do you have now ?

Re: The collection is growing
31 is even more impressive than 17 !
Northwoods knives are not cheap especially those with mammoth or stag handles. However i think they are a safe bet to maintain or increase in value.
The last few Northwoods have been rather plain patterns with little to distinguish them from a regular run GEC. I doubt these will be high on the Northwoods collector list. It is the earlier GEC made Northwoods like the Conductor #33 whittler or the #54 Presidential, and others that i think will continue to be very collectible.

And just think Greg, if you hadn't given me that Willamette Whittler, it would be 32. Sorry pal. I ain't playing that Indian giver game.gsmith7158 wrote:31 now Roland.kootenay joe wrote:I count 23 Northwoods, but post is 17 days old. How many Northwoods do you have now ?

What a beauty. Thank you.
