I have up FS today,hopefully in time for Christmas,a gorgeous EDC knife from master slipjoint knifemaker Ken Erickson. This pocketknife is hafted in old time paper base micarta that Ken says is yellow but unlike any he is able to currently obtain.It has a really nice vintage look to it.This knife is somewhat thin & has nicely rounded bolsters. Ken has it perfect for a carry knife,but not too thin,it feels sturdy.
The knife is 3-5/8" closed,6-3/8" open.
The blade is 2-3/4" from the tip to the bolster,with 2.5" of cutting edge. Stainless steel bolster & mill relieved liners is milled of one piece (integral).ATS-34 ss blade has a satin belt finish,a drawn swedge,and crescent nail nick.Blade is flat ground nice & thin.The inside trough is fully finished out to 600 plus grit finish.
Exceptionally fantastic walk n talk & fit and finish,the spring pull tension is medium perfect,maybe 5 or 6 depending on how you interpret that.It is to my liking,I feel its exactly the way it should be,glassy smooth,too.
The condition of this knife is pre owned from a collection,the knife was purchased off of Ken's 2011 Blade Show Table from Ken. It is in near mint condition. If it was carried,very little. There are the faintest of faint marks on only one side of the bolster I can see,but you have to look very close. Everything else on the knife I can see no marks. Therefore I am calling it pre owned very excellent condition.
