So I basically shrunk down to scale my pattern for the Jasmine flipper and here it is. This is different from a few shorter Jasmines that I've made which were just shortened in length had the same thickness and width. The blade on this is 3 1/8" long by .135" thick, D2 steel. Opened length is 7 3/16". I'll be making a batch and taking sign ups for this model as soon as I get my materials/parts in. Thanks.

Wonderful !!!
This model is a great choice for a 3" flipper and slimmed down for better proportions makes it perfect.
After I bragged so much about a smaller flipper you know you have to count me in for this one Ray.
Great work Ray........and Thanks !
 
I really like this design in this size, or even a hair smaller (i.e. 3" blade). Clean work and beautiful lines.
 
Looks like another winner, Ray. You're going to have to give it a new name, though. How about "Mini-Jasmine"? ;) By the way, how much does it weigh? You know me. The lighter the better. :)
 
If you make one for switzerland you can make an oher one for Belgium... ;)

You can even send them to one location and phaco and I we will arange the rest. :)
 
Thanks guys.

I don't think it's that light. It's bigger than a slim EDC and heavier also because of the thicker Ti frame. I don't have an accurate scale but I'd guess around 3.5 oz. It feels and looks small though compared to my other flippers. Probably because it's the smallest one I've ever made.
 
My favorite Jasmine yet, Ray. Playing with one on loan from a friend right now, and its a fantastic blade!
 
Ray, I just signed up today so I could post to this thread - I love the look of this knife and I'm going to want one! Eagerly awaiting the sign up...

Thanks again guys. I'll hopefully have my parts and materials within a month then Ill start a sign up list here.
 
it's just one of those folders you know at first glance is going to be a winner...

looking forward to the list :)
 
I just got this one in yesterday, and man am I impressed. Everything about it is perfect -- grinds, f&f, flipping action. Get on the list for this one as soon as you can - I can already tell this will be a super popular model. Here are some pictures for comparison to some other knives by Ray:

These ones are with a titanium blast flipper and a slim EDC, both by Ray.

Here it is with a 3" XM-18 flipper - roughly the same size.
