Ken Coats Slipjoints

One I just finished up this morning, Ats-34, integral frame, half stops, flat grinds.
Pinned shield, pre-ban ivory, 4 1/8" closed. NFS.
Comments welcome, Take a look Ken.

I can't wait to cut something, That came out perfect. Thanks Ken. You are as much an artist as craftsmen.

Wonderful choice of blade shapes. A unique combination. Beautiful.
 
This one's the biggest slipjoint I've made so far. 5" closed, Ats-34, cam end. The bolsters and liners are hard soldered (silver brazed), Flat grind. The old one next to it is a Robeson. Comments welcome, Take a look. NFS
Ken.
 
Elegant composition of the knife, Ken. The blade shape, shield, bolster and cap compliment one another.
 
Very nice, Ken. Kinda like a big daddy barlow, but with bottom bolsters. Very clean and simple. Love it!
 
Here's one I just finished up, Sambar stag, Ats-34, pinned shield, hard
soldered bolsters/liners. Comments welcome Take a look. NFS. Ken.

The fit of the stag is just great. You kept the "craginess" while also keeping the overall size down. I also love the flush fit on the shield.

Amazing!
 
I like the looks of that, Ken. Very nice.
