Ken, another very good looking knife. Your clip blades are quite distinctive for the long taper to a super fine point. my linerless Shadow has a similar profile and i find the tip great for easily poking a hole in a range of situations from letter opening to gutting.

Ken, this one is great! pardon my ignorance, but what does spun center pin mean?

The spun center pin means that after you form the head by peening for the markside of the knife,- on the pile side you cut the pin to the right length and then you can put it in a fixture and spin a dome on the pin and get it exactly as tight as you want without as much fear of peening and cracking the scale- hope this somewhat explains it.

I'm shocked this is still here. :eek:
I have a Ken Coats 4" Jack and it is a masterfully made knife.
Someone should gobble this up!
 
Thanks, Ken, that was informative. It sounds and looks like a very well made knife, I think it is beautiful, and would love to have it. Sad that it is not in this month's budget. will come back to you someday.
