well it looks to be a sit custom, 112 or a 113. Am I close?

I don't see a spot for the blade to fold...so it's a full wood 113!

Thanx Driggert, it's amazing how much weight was shed by pulling the brass bolsters

This one is going to my loving wife for Christmas...

How is the balance on that one I bet it feels just right

 

[sitflyer]

The balance point is about at the Blackwood. It feels very light and nimble in hand.

Careful not to drop that gem into a treasure chest of rich lustrous loot as it will be hard to find! WOW! And your lovely wife was worried that she might get a vacuum cleaner. You've risen above, head and shoulders, my gift giving creativity. WTG.

Sit,

That will be a wonderful gift for the love of your life! Fantastic custom work, one of these days I'm going to follow your lead and do a 113.

A nice job. Walnut & cherry wood (not sure) with mosaic pins and 420 blade steel. My wife wants a vaccum cleaner. ;o) DM

I agree John, Sit has me inspired too. I haven't done a rehandle in years. The 113 is a fine looking blade and a custom or two might be fun this winter.
