Or I can return them!

Very nice knives.

It is a single spring or a two spring?

Two springs. I wonder if they'll make the same knife as a jack.
It has nice, fat liners and apparently integral bolsters. The f&f are so good, I have to tilt the knife just right against the light to make out the separate springs.
The blades are exactly 3", my jurisdictional sweet spot.
I think I'll be carrying this one a bit.

Is that a liner between the blades?

Yes. Sorry, but that pic was the best of three.

Oh that’s fine- I think that didn’t need to be a double ended knife. Kind of defeats the point of it if they’re including the center liner. Might as well make it a jack!

I like the lambs foot blade, though.

Thanks John.
There is only 1 Aussie retailer I've found and finally had a few models in stock.
Great fit and finish. Looking forward to using it.

Are RoseCraft knives generally a bit thicker behind the edge than most other slipjoint manufacturers? Just a bit over .1" at the spine based on the website, makes me slightly hesitant, but I really like some of the pattern/material combos available from them.

The trappers are coming, not a trapper kinda guy, prefer single blade carry for my traditionals. I hope to resist the red sandalwood though, that cover material has become a favorite of mine.
