Long Pulls

I really like the long pulls, especially in combination with a pronounced swedge e.g., Greg's post. This blade has a short and a long pull so I suppose one can choose.

VERY cool, I've never seen a combo like that, thanks for sharing it....it's a beauty....but then again all your knives make me drool. :D
 
I'm not sure I like long pulls on a knife with a half stop. My nail get in there to open it and when it clicks to the half stop, the nail gets caught and torn up a little.

Of course this may depend on the knife, the cut of the nail, the depth of the pull, the snap of the half stop...etc. Hard to generalize.

I believe that Brent Cramer (Blades&Grace) made it for Corey. (I only know that because I spent half the weekend on Brent's website drooling over the pictures of the knife I'm getting from Brent this week!)
 
I have a few with long pulls. I like the look more than the function, and find placement trumps design in most cases. But they sure are pretty.

I'll throw in with the long pulls.

The knife that I carried the most in my life, my old Buck 301, had a long pull, and I got spoiled by it. I do love the looks of the long pull on a nice clip blade. Match strike pulls will almost have me pleasuring myself!:D

Sadly, they are being lost for the sake of faster and easy production, like a lot of things.

Heck, I'd take a long pull on a peanut if I could get it!

Okay, it would be a shorter long pull on a peanut.

Once again the folks here are blowing my mind with the amazing knives they have......true elegance, but with muscle! :eek:

It's obvious that for some odd reason Elliott doesn't like long pulls......holy toledo and akron too!

That is a Brent Cramer. The cool thing about it, there's a long pull on each side of the blade. A totally ambidextrous knife.

Long pulls look particularly nice on spear point blades. I really like it on this harness jack.
