hi all.
after several years, i have finally figured out what i like.

as it turns out, my go-to traditional folder is a 3 7/8-4 1/2" closed length "barehead" folder with jigged bone handle scales.

i will post pics of the ones i have tomorrow, but i needed to get this off my chest tonight. :rolleyes: :D

i would love to see any and all pics of your barehead traditional folders with jigged bone handles.

thanks!

EDIT: found a pic i already had saved.

I could post all of these pictures in one post but it's more fun posting them one at a time.:)
 
Absorbing thread, Barehead is my favourite style and I like them in wood, smooth bone, stag and acrylics, but the man asked for jigged bone so...

Tidioute and Schatt in the style of Slimline Trapper. The only Slimline Trapper, barehead, I have from CASE is jigged delrin. Disqualified:D
