You guys may have noticed Ken getting some practice on easy open folders lately. (I almost bought that one too!:D) Well, this is why I think he practiced some. I ordered this one shortly after buying my first Coats folder in that Shadow Toothpick in green linen.

This one is my Shadow Jack Easy Open (Plucker as Ken calls it) in green linen. Ken went above and beyond for me here. Ken you are such a pleasure to deal with and such a gem on the forums. Thanks so much.
We'll be dealing again in the future I'm sure.

Anyway, guys this one is my special order Jack. 3 and 7/8" closed, 6 and 7/8" open. As ordered its equipped with a half stop, no nail nick at my request, a non swedge "wharny/spear" blade shape similar to what I use in many of my own Ouparator folders that I have grown very fond of and speaking of Oupa the acorn shield in this one was done for me years ago at my request by Oupa and I misplaced it shortly after receiving it in the mail. I happened to find it just after placing my order with Ken and thought then to ask if he would object to using it in my folder. He gladly consented to pin it down for me and here you go. My one of a kind. Something tells me I'll be using this one for a long time guys! :thumbup:

Thanks for looking.
