Well I mentioned a while back when I listed the two prototypes that Keith Johnson and I were working on a project, we've just finished the 1st batch.

Keith and I split the work on these and they are marked with both of our names. Please keep in mind that the measurements will vary slightly (very slightly).

The specs are:

Blade - Stone washed ATS-34, 3.065 inches measured from front of handle to tip, .130" thick.
Handles - 3.8 inches, Deep textured G-10, 5ea. black/tan, 5ea. black/orange.
Overall - 6.8"
Backspacer - Carbon fiber.
Pivot - 1/8" barrel pivot.

Price - $175 + $8 shipping (U.S. priority insured) $12 (U.K. international priority uninsured), also we ask that PayPal users cover fees.

Thanks for looking :)

Gotta be a winner ! Glad I've put my order in for one with a special flair. Looking forward to receiving it.
 
The blade shape on these is right up my alley.
Can you post a picture showing the thickness of the handle slabs?
What keeps the blade from opening too far?

Thanks

I'll post one shortly, I have my grandson here so I need to get him settled in and I'll get on it.
 
Looks like very clean fit and finish Les, you guys have come up with a very neat modern recreation.
