This one I built as a prototype for a blade forum member except his will have 2 blades. I put the back bolster on to preserve the integrity of the bone. The dye and super glue process was fun. The bone is elk leg bone a friend brought back from a bow hunting trip in Colorado.

SPECS
Blade and spring ATS-34, cryo quenched Rc-62, 3/32" stock.
Frame is 416 ss, Liners and Bolsters integral, milled from barstock.
Scales Ken Coats dyed and stabilized bone.
Closed 3 5/8", Open 6 1/2".
Flush open, closed, and half stop positions. About 6 on the pull open scale.

SOLE AUTHORSHIP All parts made by me in my shop.

Price: $300 includes paypal and shipping. SOLD Thanks Dave
You can say I'll take it here, pm or email me.
All comments welcome, and thanks for looking.

Ken.

Holy cow, Ken! The lines of that knife are just gorgeous. I generally prefer more understated scales, but I love it even so.

I really like the shape on that Wharncliffe blade. Some that I have seen are wider and don't have that wicked, slim look. Great swedge too. Very nice!
 
She arrived today! Man what a cutter!! Super Nice job Ken. I love it, GREAT walk & talk, F&F is top shelf. If you haven't tried 1 of Ken's knives I HIGHLY recomend them.
And as our slim texas friend said "The scales do look even better in person"

Thanks again Ken,

Dave
