I appreciate a small knife, but I really like a BIG knife.

A small folder is great for carry size and to use. But the little bit bigger ones, you gotta love them...... :D :thumbup:

This knife is SOLD!​

This one is four an a quarter inches closed, good solid snap opening and closing.
Micarta scales with stainless hard wear. The blade and back spring are ATS34, hand finished.
Thanks for the looks, hope you enjoy the larger ones too.​

Nice one, Todd!

I got a 4 1/4" double blade jack in my pocket right now. You're right. Gotta love it!
 
I like this Schatt 4.5" English Jack I have alright! But, he stays indoors in summer, I field him in winter when wearing a coat or jacket, trouser pocket just can't stand him....
 
Another BEAUTY from Mr.Davidson ! I prefer my folders on the larger side as well

The 1st knife i ever bought was an 80t so i guess my taste hasn,t changed over the years.
 
Nice work Todd! I like the shield on this one.

Congrats to you and the lucky new owner.

Thanks Ken, being a maker I'm sure you enjoy all sizes.
But say leaning to one or the other? Which do you prefer? Large or small?:confused::)
Thanks ya all!

I think that the slips in the 3 3/8 to 3 5/8 is what I personally am drawn to with a leaning towards the 3 3/8 size. As a maker I really enjoy the challenge of multi-blade slips in the 3 1/8 to 3 5/8 size. I have made a few knives in the 4 plus range that were hard for me to box and ship! :eek:

Like you , i am sure, bottom line, slips in all sizes and shapes and configurations is what trips my trigger.

Again, congrats on a well designed and executed slip

Just recently got a 4" closed 1st gen. stag Bulldog Stockman, boy it sure feels big...but I like it! Am really growing fond of this pocket sagger:D
 
Hey guys I'am custom knife maker specializing is slip joint knive in tradional patters and like crating large knive close to five inches when clolse like the the case bull dog pattern
 
I typically lean towards 3 1/2- 3 3/4 inches, but the larger ones do have a feeling in hand that you just can't get with a smaller knife...
If a guys going to have one over 4 inches, thats a great one to have.
Very Nice...
 
That's a sweet lookin knife, Todd. :thumbup::cool:
 
Nice knife Todd, could live and make knives my whole life without knowing
knives under 3 7/8"-4" existed. For me I do like the challenge of making the
smaller knives but when it comes to users---
Ken.
