Here's a couple of wharncliffe swaybacks I recently finished up. Aside from the handle material and size, the specs are the same on both knives. Here they are:
Blades and backsprings are CPM-154; blades hollow ground and hand finished
Bolsters and pivots are 416 stainless; remaining pins are nickel silver
Liners are 410 stainless -mill relieved around pivot and jeweled inside
Ebony knife is 6 7/8" overall; 4" closed; blade is 2 15/16" tip to bolster
(SOLD)Ivory (pre-ban elephant) knife is just over 6 1/4" overall; just over 3 5/8" closed; blade is just over 2 1/2" tip to bolsters. NOTE: If you hold this knife up to the light and look from the inside, you can see a tiny gap between the backspring and liner in a small area between the center spring pin and the pivot.
Both knives have crisp action, medium pull, and half stops.
Prices: Ebony- $325.00; Ivory- $OLD shipped in the U.S. Paypal preferred, but can PM for other options. First come first served. Questions or comments welcome...thanks for the look! -Phil Tham
