Picked this up a week or so ago, she's a real cutie at under a
2" blade, don't have a ruler on me at this time to give an exact
measurement.

The jig bone is done nice as are the bolsters and the lock works
very well too.

The neat thing about this is the size, very handy in a non threatening
way, due to it's petite size, but, it's solid and quite sharp :)

Anyone else carry one of his knives?

Now that is classy.

Is it a slippy with a liner-lock? That is an idea I thought would be grand for daily carry.
 
Right, it has a back spring as well as the liner lock, being small he brought
the top area of it above the edge, you can just see it in the image there,
it's grooved for traction and works nice.

and sharp, one thing I like is how thin he ground down the blade, almost zero
bevel on this one, and, there is no notch before the edge starts, so nothing to
hang up on, all in all, I like it :) while it's small, it still does most of the chores
that we would normally need a knife to perform at our regular day job, and having
another larger blade for bigger jobs is just another reason to carry another knife...or two ;)

Thanks, here is a group shot that shows a bit more scale to it's size

TKC, hope you get in touch with him and snag a green one, that would be very cool !

Here is a sheath finished up for this knife,

While I was worried that there wasn't enough contour for it to be retain
well enough, it turned out that the butt of the knife was bigger than the
bolster area and so it snaps into place better than most knives would!

Handy, barely fits on the belt, blade measures in at 1 7/8" so you know it's
not too big but boy does she cut!

It's a nice mate to the Benchmade Apparition that's clipped in my right front pocket :)
