Greetings everyone this is my second attempt, I apologize .... think I've got it straight this time. This is a Peanut Knife that we've decided to call "Coin Pocket Peanut " mainly since its a single blade. This is the first Peanut I've made, which was a challenge. Normally I make larger knives. All comments welcome.

Knife Specs:
Closed - 2 3/4 in.
Blade - 2 1/4 in.ATS-34 3/32 brush finish
Stainless Steel - bolsters, liners and pins
Handle Material - my dye and jigged bone
Knife action - smooth half stop
Liners - mill relieved
Nail Pull - Crescent

Thanks

Pepe, that's a very beautiful peanut!:thumbup:

I love how you carried the jigging all the way down to the bolster. And no shield to screw up the view of those nice scales. Something I wish Case would on their knives! Great job.:thumbup::thumbup:

Normally I like carbon blades in small traditionals, but those scales look fantastic. I also think that the swooping size of the handle would be really comfortable in hand. Great work.

Very nice! That's a great looking 'nut! :thumbup: How's the pull on it? Being a single blade it looks like you could pinch it open if the pull isn't a GEC-like 9 or 10.
 
Keith the pull is about a 5 and it can be pinched without a problem. Thanks.
 
That is a really great looking knife. I don't even like peanuts and would be proud to own that. You did a great job.

Thanks Ben......neither did I, till my wife twisted my arm to make one. I'm glad she did.
 
Great looking peanut Pepe. Pretty handles, and I like the brushed finish on the blades, with the matching cap and bolster.
