Hey everyone! Chased down a couple of true grails recently and paid a little more than I had intended to. To help recoup some funds I'm putting this one up as it's the last one to come in.
Here is a gorgeous dogleg jack by John Lloyd, dressed in vintage butterscotch micarta that has a stunning color palette. So stunning that I'm sure I'll regret selling this. The lines are curves of this knife are a joy and the peaked bar shield accents them perfectly.
Fit and finish on this one is outstanding, pins and shield are completely flush against the scale, spring is flush in all three positions. Blade is nicely centered, slightly favors the pile side but not even close to rubbing. Walk and talk is perfect with good snap all around and absolutely zero blade wobble. Pull is a solid 6 and can be pinched. Blade grinds are nice and even, nick is perfectly cut.
I did touch this up on a sharpmaker as it wasn't cleanly cutting paper when I took delivery. As is from the maker otherwise.
Length closed is 3.5", steel is CPM 154. Will ship in a zippered pouch.
Price is $230 net via paypal, shipped CONUS +2. Please let me know if you have any questions or if you need additional pics.
Thanks for looking!
