Brent BD Cramer Diamond Edge Jack
Hey all,
Up today is one of my favorites from one of my favorite forum makers, Brent Cramer (blades&grace here). Below is his description of the knife, with my parentheticals.
Blade and spring are ATS-34, Rc 61-62 on the blade, spring @ Rc 48-49. Blade is hollow ground on a 14" wheel, with an 800 grit hand rubbed finish. Drawn swedge on Pen blade and cut swedge on the Spear point blade. Liners and bolsters 304 ss, mill relieved, all hardware ss (no gaps, no light). Handle material is some Old Green jigged bone I got from Tony Bose (reads dark green almost black on the face and more emerald from the sides) Diamond shield that's double pinned. Closed length 3 3/4". Back is flush in open and closed positions (No half stop). Pull at about a 5-6.
Some other notes from me:
This knife feels great in the hand. no blade play. Both blades centered. Great swedge on the spear point. Really nice snappy action. It's seen plenty of pocket time and some light use, but from the videos you can see the blades are virtually pristine with the gorgeous hand rubbed finish intact.
Closed
Cheers.
