Hey Brian, thanks for taking the time to post all of these pics. My first chance to see most of them, and I like what I see. Specially the Jester.

Does the Jester have a clip or is it a keychain knife like the Ladybug?

Which blade steel?
 
I always enjoy meeting Sal & getting to talk prototypes only made it better. It was my pleasure to take & post the pix. I wish some of them had come out better but, at least, we now know what they look like.

Carlos, I don't remember a clip but, then again, I was on knife overload so it may have very well been there.
 
Hi Carlos. No clip on the Jester.

Had hoped to see you in New York. Sorry you couldn't make it. Maybe it's time for you to experience the Blade Show in Atlanta.

Thanks Sal, I really wish I could have gotten over there, but my mother's illness required that I stay in Boston. Hopefully she'll get stronger soon.
 
Carlos, I wish your mother well. Sal, what size is the Jester? I guess it is an update of the Baby Goddard, a dressy keychain knife.
 
Is the handle red micarta? I really wish that knife makers went back to using micarta. It's becoming a rarity these days. Everything is zytel and G10. And it's not that I don't like those two materials, but a change in pace would be nice:p :p :p

Hi Anthony. The Jester is Ladybug size.

Hey Jassman. The handle on the "short run" is burgundy micarta. Only 1000 pcs will be made. The regular Jester will be FRN with black and two colors available.

Hey Sal,
that's JaZZman, no assman about it;) ;) ;) Sounds good, are there any other models with Micarta coming out??? I know that this will be one that I have to get!
Matt
 
Hey Jazzman. Sorry 'bout that. No other micarta versions planned. We'll have to wait to see reaction. The micarta version is expensive, probably more than $60 MSRP. All of the same labor processes to make it. I just wanted to intro something a little unusual for the customer that didn't want FRN.
