This Knife has got everything ,works perfect ,slim, man the pictures dont look like the knife does in person, it'S sooooo much better looking when you seee it. you will be amazed by the difference, I have a nice Dog Leg Jack coming soon,maybe sat. or sunday, so be watching for it.It might be in Stag, with threaded Bolsters. dont know about a sheild yet ,?? depends on how course the Stag is after its on. so theres a lot of work you folks dont know about goes into to these knives,I mean working at Mc Donalds could be easier. an for a weeks work maybe more money too, so were not asking that much for all that we have in these things ,plus materials an shop maintenance also. your getting a bargain at these prices , if it dosent sell soon it goes to a purveyor who will jack the price up another 100.00 hundred bucks an it will sell there. so you was warned ???,,heheehehh!!! bye ,,,,.....Joe
 
Joe,
Thank You very much.
This beauty arrived today, all I can say is WOW!
I was a little concerned when you posted "It's not
perfected but it's not bad"
To me it is PERFECT. Beautiful workmanship.
Regards,
Ed
 
Thanks Ed , yes it is a nice knife , I guess its better to think your going to be disappointed an then Not be as the other way around, I think what I was referring to was putting the nail opener lower so i could have lots more swedge or false edge showing, the rest was in pretty good shape though, I really liked it to ,,except the swedge part . ok Thanks Again ED
 
Yep, Joe is a better knifemaker than photographer. By far !
All 4 of my Joe Allen folders were very pleasant surprises, and they have a sense of 'personality' or 'character' too, that is not conveyed via electronic medium.
More knives please Joe.
