New Swayback

[K R Johnson]

A name from the past popped up when an old friend from high school emailed me not knowing who I was. We haven't had contact for over 40 years. He was inquiring about a swayback he'd seen in the for sale area. He ended up ordering this one and I put the last finishing touches on it today. I'll be shipping it out to him tomorrow.

It's ATS-34 blade & spring, stainless bolsters & mill relieved liners, burgundy Micarta, 3 3/4".

Comments are welcome. Keith

Thank you for the great swayback Keith. A quality piece in every respect. Feels great in the hand and the spring tension is perfect. I love the maroon micarta. I'll be sure to let you know when I come up fishing so I can stop by. Thanks again Keith. David
