Show off your Single Blade Slippys

This Schatt & Morgan #69 sheepsfoot Barlow is my first single-blade Barlow:

I've found that in multi-bladed knives the sheepsfoot tends to be my go-to blade, so I figured it was time to have a single-bladed sheepsfoot knife. This one feels good in hand, and it features a lot of little things I've been after in one knife -- long match-striker pull, big bolster stamp, that great little keystone shield, etc.
 
GEC 73 stainless from the Cyclops' Works. Recently transformed from a 2 blade obese desk-lurker into a svelte EDC by Glennbad, thanks Glenn!

Thanks JD! Hey, those Cope knives are really cool! Missed out on some in the past. That is a very handsome knife!!! :thumbup::thumbup:
 
took a trapper liner and made couple patterns and put this together without bolsters....blade centers,good snap.
it's not what i wanted because i don't have correct drill bit...just a tad too large,could not wait to get one...
but it done ok.....next one will be diff handle combo....
criticism welcome...jd

It's got a lock but it's still a slip joint. I read a Wikipedia article about the guy who "invented" the liner lock and it says about 1980 but I'm pretty sure my OT pre-dates that.
Is it really so different to call it an invention. I DON'T THINK SO!

Different kind of liner lock. The 1980 version is the "Walker liner lock". Same name as the traditional, but the mechanism is quite different. The Walker liner lock really was a new invention.
