Hello BF,
Up for sale is a "Daddy" model slipjoint from French knife maker Jiminy Claustrat, featuring a 90MCV8 (similar to O2) carbon steel blade, Amboyna burl covers, black liners, textured brass bolsters, integrated lanyard pin, and stainless liners and spring. This one is built like a tank and feels like one. 4.7" closed and 7.2oz. The handle is hand-filling but still reasonably thin, so it doesn't feel like a brick. The blade has a thin and slicey grind. This knife features a Cran Forcé mechanism (cam tang with a forced notch) that is super smooth and has a decisive lockup. Has a stop pin and can be operated one-handed. Perfect centering and no play.
I am the first owner and purchased this from Coutebox, but it is just a bit too big for me. It has some patina that almost blends in with the dark stonewash, otherwise it is in excellent condition. Comes with COA and bag. Originally $575 (not including international Express shipping), which is already an incredible value for the quality of this knife.
