Diefenthal folder, stag scales

[Wolfgang]

Just took some pics of my recently acquired Diefenthal backlock folder.

It`s a pretty heavy but handy folder. Blade length tip to bolsters 8 cm (3.15"), cutting edge ~ 7 cm (2.76"). Stainless steel, hollow grind.
They don`t tell what kind of steel it is, just razor blade steel, and call it D2000. :grumpy:
Saw with bottle opener and screwdriver.
corkscrew.
Bolsters nickel silver.
And some very attractive stag scales.

Would rate the overall quality almost to the good OLD! Puma folders.:thumbup:

Just have a look, please.

Blades perfectly centered:

Comparsion to a regular SAK (only modified with "tea-coloured" ostrich bone by Karel "cosco" Koci)

I`m really happy with my purchase.

Its the release for the lock.

Looks to be a good knife, if not all that pocket friendly

Good quality!

Pity they don't make a single-blade lockback.....

You should get a commission, I just bought one (the single blade) because of your post! Thanks a lot, I think.

You`re welcome, I`m glad I could help spending your money!

Please let us know how you like your new toy when you got it!
(And don`t forget to post pics.)

 

[mauserdude67]

Spend indeed, I'll have to replenish my "Funny" money fund after buying that one. I just couldn't resist that beautiful stag and the interesting grind of the blade. Single blade knives will be the end of me, literally or figuratively, but what a way to go.
I'll definitely take some pics, I'll post them to this thread when it gets here. Now to wait...
