Here is another fantastic EDC pocket knife from our own,Ken Erickson,a top shelf slipjoint knife maker & great fella to know.This knife is hafted in G-10,I do believe Ken refers to it as black-green,but it looks to me like black-blue. It is very ,very good looking,he has the front "pinched" and the whole knife really well rounded,one feature I think you will always find on Ken's knives,weather a masterpiece or a carry knife like this one.3/32" thick stock ATS-34 ss blade is flat ground.Spring is like steel. Liners are ss & mill relieved,all other parts (pins) are ss as well. Cut swedge ,crescent nail pull,hand rubbed finish and flat ground,thin,on the blade.The inside of the trough is fully finished out as well.They do this for looks of course but it does add corrosion resistance to the inside of the spring in there. That spot inside there , on the spring , is probably , the most succeptable place to corrosion spotting on a slipjoint,FYI.

The action is medium and snappy. Walk n talk ,fit & finish is spot on perfect.

Knife measures 3.5" closed, 6-1/8" open. The blade measures 2-5/8" from the tip to handle,with 2-3/8" of cutting edge.

Condition is pre owned,carried & used,according to the previous owner,but I cannot see any marks worth mentioning. I will call it pre owned ,very excellent condition

Happy Holidays All
Thanks,-Vince
