I have to say over the years I've had quite a few of Jerry's knives, but this one is by far my favorite. I wanted to share with some of you lockback/slipjoint lovers. His work is outstanding! This is his LB5 model(LockBack5) full size. The Mike Norris Hornetsnest SS Damascus blade is 3 1/4" from bolster to tip. The jigged black micarta scales really gives this knife great purchase. I requested a single fluted bolster on this one. He has only done one other LB5 with a bolster that I know of, and it was requested by me as well. He says he really likes the looks and plans on putting more out. The lockback spring is extra strong for total positive closing, and the blade spine has been jimped for choaking up on the knife for fine work. Sorry for the crappy Iphone photos, best I could muster.

That's a beauty! I'm a big Jerry Halfrich fan and that looks like one to be proud of, both for the maker and owner. Congratulations.
 
Sweet Blade Bro, I can't wait to see you next so that I can get that knife in hand. Hopefully you'll be bored with it by then so that I can get a deal on it ;D

Take care
 
One of the best looking knives from Jerry I have seen. Think I'll have to talk to him about one of those in Atlanta!!!
