Rusty Preston trapper, just over 3 1/2 closed, 2 3/4 blades of 154cm. Mammoth scales. Firm action with half stops. A very nice slip!




 
File work is OUTSTANDING and the scales are great, thanks for sharing. I will be watching for more of his work.

Wow, that's very nice. I agree, the file work is better then pretty much any I've seen.
 
That's a beautiful piece. You can definitely see Bill Ruple's influence in the file work.
 
A beautiful piece of work from Mr. Preston (who also happens to be a great guy!) As soon as you see that filework it's obvious that Rusty was a student of Bill Ruple (as was another of my favorite makers, Don Morrow) :D )
 
WOW....it doesn't get any better than that! That has to be the nicest folder I've seen on this forum. Congrats....I'm definitely jealous. :thumbup:
 
Thats a piece of art, great looking file work and the scales are as purty as they come.
This could very likely be the best executed file work I've seen so far.
Thanks for sharing, and take care of it.
