This is my first two blade slip joint and my 11th slip joint to date. It is a milestone for me because it marks my first year making knives. I completed my first knife, a fixed blade, back in the end of August 2011. It was supposed to end up like my Uinta Bushcraft model but needless to say it fell a little short. I feel that I have made some progress over this year and hope the next one is just as good.

This is patterned after the Tony Bose Wharncliffe Trapper. It measures a little over 3 1/2" closed and is made with CPM 154CM. Handles are lightning strike carbon fiber over orange g-10 and earth brown g-10.

Thanks for looking!

That is sweet! And the fact that you're only a year into this is absolutely insane. Great work!
 
Looks great. Nice and clean and I love the trapper. You're doing a really good job for only a year in.

I would prefer this without the liners.........but that's just me and a preference thing. Doesn't take anything away from the quality of the work.

Again, really nice work here.
 
Holy crap, you have only been doing this for a year? That knife is an outstanding milemarker. Hang on to that one.
 
I really like this one Jared! It makes want a slipjoint, everything on it looks super crisp and clean.
And congrats on the Milestone!!
 
Really nice!

"Made some progress...". Understatement of the year right there. Wow, what a talent!

Hard to believe you've only been making knives for a year. When I first joined this forum I saw some of your knives in the exchange. I loved them immediately very clean, elegant but simple. Very very nice man. I hope to own one of your knives someday and someday I hope to make my own that beautiful. Cheers
