Shadley custom slipjoint What do you think?

[OregonEdge]

HI all, Here is a little single blade I recently picked up from Mr. Shadley.... I now know what a superior slip joint looks and feels like?

Nice score OE. Excellent.

A little story: Three years ago I had the priviledge of having breakfast with Phil Lobred and Bob Loveless at the AKI. In our conversation, Bob pulled out a small Lone Wolf folder he designed, and a small slipjoint from Gene Shadley. He said it was his EDC and he simply thought the world of the little knife.

Pretty high acclaim in itself.

thanks!... that's the City Knife from Lone Wolf. they are local here. He also designed a folding hunter and a fixed blade. I think all are out of production,
but they were all very nice for productions
