This is one I set aside a few months ago and finally finished.

3 ¾ closed CPM-154 blades. 416 integral bolsters/liners mill relieved at the pivot with stag.

I like the way you brought the blades out of the "round" on the spine. So many come
(and easier to make) straight off the backspring. Very nice knife.

I'm trying to figure out exactly what this means. Do you mean how the pivot end of the blade flows with the spine? Whatever it means this piece looks great!

What a beautiful knife! The shield is so well matched to the end caps, great understated style.
 
Dang! Tale about fit and finish, super clean and sharp, don't believe it could get much better.

Oh Boy! that is one clean looking slip joint. Its awesome how those those blades line up in the closed position. The bevel grinds and pulls are superb Super job.
 
She's a dandy! everything looks nice and round! Just
like it should be... Congrats!

Very nice job all the way around Craig. I really like everything about it and the sunken joints just add icing to the cake.
 
Thanks everyone.

Clutchcharter, Yes the the spine of the blade is lower than the back of the knife. The spring ends are rounded to join the blade spine along the bolsters, instead of being flush with the back of the knife.

Thanks again
