Frontier Bone

Post by JWS »

I am still a rookie when it comes to GEC's. Why do I not see any frontier bone knives posted. Sometimes I knida like this material next time I don't. Maybe I just answered my own question.

I think it's a matter of personal taste, but you're right, you don't see too much of it posted.

I personally find it to be a bit too "neutral" for my taste - there are just too many other interesting flavors, so why pick vanilla?

Just my opinion, of course … I'm sure there are some Frontier Bone lovers out there …

The Frontier Bone,is just too ""Plain Jane"" to me and on the Tidioute brand,with no,ringed or slanted bolsters to help out the looks,it just stays""Plain Jane"" ::shrug:: ______maybe some nice ""jiggin'"" would help ?????? and like Edge,said ""with others to choose from,it just don't get to go ""dancing"" to often :) _________seems I remember,one of the dealers said it was a good seller though???? ::hmm:: if that's the case,why won't someone,show some photos????______I only have the one Sunfish,that I got in a trade,along with the Burnt Grizzly------they are both in, the same price range,so which would you choose,if you could only have the one ?????????? ::suspense::

I have one that came hot of the line before any dealer got one.

It took me 20 mins to pull the trigger on this one. I got her due to the 3 colors that makes me keep looking at her. She is like a good painting to me. I looked at others why all I was visiting and just this one had that. Yes you have to have this in hand to get a real good look.

Note the first photo left cornor. the clear look then the white look, then the brown look.

I call her my 3 tone :lol: ::sneaky::

Thank you very much paulsvintage.

Yes the color seems to be right on her.

I took 30 min.s looking at them and this #21 looked like a winner.

I wish I was there when to ELK handled was running on line.

I am working on getting a ELK Toothpick.
