This folder is a very old design it dates back to the 1750-1800, it was called a rifle mans knife. This knife is easy in the hand and was generally carried in the possible's bag. I have fancied it up a bit and used modern materials but other than that the concept is the same.

O.A.L.- 8-3/8 inches
Blade- 3-5/8 inches and pivots on a stainless steel bushing
Bolsters & liner brass
Blade- O1
Handle Slabs are stabilize tiger ash
Price-$250.00 + shipping
Pins are brass with exception of the pivot pin is steel

Top of blade is file worked as is Spring and bottom of liners. Also inside of liners and bottom of spring are jeweled.
I would say the spring is med. stiff and walk and talk is good to perfect.

I really like this knife; it's unique and beautiful at the same time. I wish I had the cash to oblige!
Keep 'em comin' and some day I will! :D
