This is made by Bob Ham,I think he is located in NC He sells on Ebay,this was made to order for a bud,I got it in a multiple trade,I'd like to sell it
It is 4.5" closed,has a 3.5" ATS-34 SS hollow ground blade with a satin belt finish & has a real nice ground swedge on top,the nail nick is done real nice,too,and is 8" opened up.It has a ss lanyard tube that is pretty small diameter,but still can function
The SS liners are relieved,that means they are milled out so the tang of the blade does not get scratched from a lot of opening & closing.The pivot is constructed with a bushing,that means that the blade pivots on a round bushing that is around the pivoit pin,again,this is for resistance to wear over usage,also makes for smoother action.This style is commonly called a "shadow" and has no bolsters.The scales are a blackish greenish linen micarta.This has "half stops",and the spring tension is real nice A user grade custom folder,is in good shape,professionally sharpened,it is Real sharp ! There is a teeny,tiny amount of side to side bladeplay,no big deal,this is common in slipjoint folders,this is a great user grade knife.He gets in between $150 to $175 for a large folder like this This would make a great user folder,or entry level into custom folders This is a lot of knife for this asking price
I'm asking **$OLD ** shipped,Con US,M.O.,or Paypal fee included
Thanks,
