Here are three custom Leverlettos I'm taking to the show to sell.
The mini is 1/2 size, the engraved knife is full size, and the big one is 1-1/2 size. All are 1095, brass liners, nickel silver fittings. The mini has mother of pearl scales, the standard has jigged bone, and the large knife has buffalo horn.

Sweet looking knives, Bill! Looking forward to seeing them in person if they're not gone by the time I walk by!
 
Yep, those look great. I really like the buffalo horn on the big one. Wish I could try 'em out. Good luck at Blade.
 
Nice lookin work Bill.
See you next week.
 
Badass! I've loved leverlettos since I saw "The Outsiders" when I was a kid.
 
The "Outsiders" knife was a German shotshell-puller lever lock, not a Leverletto.
The Leverletto is my proprietary design. It melds the German lever lock and the Italian stiletto. There is a commercial version of it available.
Thanks!

thanks Bill..I was unaware. I never knew the name for the Outsiders knife and wrongly assumed you had made a knife of the same design. They are beautiful pieces and I appreciate you clearing me up on the differences.
 
No problem! I find it sort of flattering that all lever locks are commonly being referred to as Leverlettos.
Yes, it's all my work-every piece, pin, lever, and blade.
