Show off your Single Blade Slippys

Also was curious about the Hammer Brand Cotton Samplers.Bought a couple and they are nice knives with thick blades and springs.The bone is lousy though,or was on mine,so i changed it to the blk. and grey g-10.

Big request! But an interesting one.

CASE make a number of them Slimline Trapper, Mini Trapper, Sodbuster, Clasp Knife comes to mind.

Queen Cutlery's single blades are usually liner locks not slipjoint except the Utility, certain to be others.

GEC has No.s 25, 73,23,56 as single blades plus some ludicrous Leg Knife but I can't consider that as a knife....sorry!

BUCK has them 302 and no doubt others.

Böker, not sure, mainly Lockbacks

RR they make some huge monster Clasp Knife they call Deer Slayer.

French Laguoiles are generally single blade and most Traditional European knives are also single blades (Spain, Italy, Corsica)

Majority of Customs are singles.

Now somebody can add a load of worthwhile pictures.
 
I suspect you will get a lot of responses.

Well , my favorite configuration of Slipjoint are single blade variants. I love this thread ! I tried taking more pictures of the rest of my meager single bladed offerings but this Case is the only one that turned out good and I do not feel like messing with that camera this late.
I actually won this Case in a contest on BF , from one of our generous members. I decided to customize it by smoothing out the handles and adding an 'easy-open' , I like it better this way. This knife gets carried and used a lot and looks much nicer in person , I'm especially proud of how well the 'easy-open' turned out.

edit ! - My fiance stepped in and saved this luddite from defeat. The pictured are my three single blade Slipjoints aside from my Toothpick which has gone AWOL for a bit....
Pictured besides the Case are an old Camillus which I believe is a cotton sampler , if anyone cares to correct me on that , feel free to :) Then a folder is saved from the garbage , it had two other blades which were broken , no scales , rusted and unloved - so I took it apart and put it back together to the best of my amatuer ability , added some home dyed bone scales to it and a shield and it is usable once again. :)

There are some ridiculously beautiful knives in this thread folks.... I hate to say it but I am jealous. :)

Here we go....

Sorry, I just realized that the Opinel is technically not a slipjoint (no backspring), and the Buck Metro is not traditional.
