Hello BF,
Up for sale are three slipjoints from three incredible French knife makers. All three knives use the Cran Forcé mechanism (a cam tang with a forced notch) and have stop pins.
Payment via PPFF or Zelle, PPGS add 3%. Price includes shipping via method in the individual descriptions. No trades please. Reasonable offers considered. More pics in subsequent posts.

4.3” closed slipjoint with RWL-34 blade steel, tan G10 handles and mill-relieved black G10 liners. No steel liners on this one. The tan G10 is pretty attractive and has some hints of yellow that one can see in natural light. The action and opening thwack on this knife is impressive, and it appears nearly new with the exception of a few areas where the liners have delaminated along the edge. It does not appear to be progressing. Beautiful blade finish and great grind. Perfect centering and seating.
This is a catch and release for me and I am knocking $250 off of my cost. Comes with ostrich leather case.
Price:$1250 $1150 $995 shipped USPS Priority Mail Express or your preferred method

4.45” closed with warthog ivory covers, steel liners, RWL-34 blade, and integrated lanyard pin (with lanyard from the maker) Beautiful design and light for its size. Excellent finishes all around. Besides a few small marks on the liners this knife is in excellent condition. Pristine blade finish. The blade sits to the right of center when closed but does not rub the liners. Solid open seating and a very pleasing opening thwack. Originally $975.
Price:$795 $695 $595 shipped USPS Priority Mail
(SOLD) Jiminy Claustrat “Daddy”
This one is built like a tank and feels like one. 4.7" closed and 7.2oz. Featuring a 90MCV8 (similar to O2) carbon steel blade, Amboyna burl covers, black liners, textured brass bolsters, integrated lanyard pin, and stainless liners (mill relieved) and spring. 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. Perfect centering and seating.
I am the first owner and purchased this recently, 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, which is already an incredible value for the quality of this knife.
