Hello Again,
I just finished this doctor's slipjoint. I made it a little wider at the pivot so I could sink the joint. Note that the pivot is visible if you look closely -don't think it shows in the photos. Also put a very subtle wavy texture on the bolsters before rubbing them out. Here's the particulars:
Blade and spring are CPM-154 stainless; blade is hollow ground and satin (hand) finished
Bolsters are 416 stainless also satin finished
Handles are Apple Coral
Liners are 410 stainless
Handle pins are nickel silver
Backspring is fileworked
Nice action with medium pull
Overall length is ~7 1/4"; 4" closed; blade is 3 1/4" tip to bolsters
Price is $350 U.S. shipping included. Paypal works for me or I can accomodate other options. First "I'll take it" does. Comments/questions always welcome. Thanks for lookin! -Phil Tham
