Greetings everyone, Here’s a slim little slicer/edc just finished up. Hope you like it!
80CRV2 with Paul Bos HT to 60,61- Dimensions - .135” x 7 5/16” OAL and 1 3/16” tall – 3 5/16” from tip to scales – Hand sanded to 1200 grit for a clean satin finish. It was near sharp before sharpening.
The scales are K&G stabilized/dyed Jacaranda. It’s finished to 1200 grit with 5/32” copper and brass pins. Finished with multiple coats of Danish oil then buffed with carnauba wax. Sheath has a snug fit with great retention yet easy to deploy.
Very affordable at only $140 to your door, and of course your satisfaction is my only priority. I can accept paypal, check or MO, and the price includes fees and free shipping in the US.
Thanks so much for looking! Please feel free to comment, ask anything here or via PM.

An a bonus story: When I was first considering "hmmmm this is pretty slim" immediately an old hit song lyric came to mind, By Jim Croce in the early 70's. Here's the relevant lyrics from "You don't mess around with Jim":
uptown got its hustlers the bowery got its bums 42nd street got big jim walker he a pool shootin son of a gun
yeah he big and dumb as a man can come but he stronger than a country hoss
and when the bad folks all get together at night you know they all call big jim boss just because
they say you dont tug on supermans cape you dont spit into the wind you dont pull the mask off that old lone ranger and you dont mess around with jim
well outta south alabama came a country boy he say im lookin for a man named jim i am a pool shootin boy my name willie mccoy but down home they call me slim
yeah im lookin for the king of 42nd street he drivin a drop top cadillac last week he took all my money and it may sound funny but i come to get my money back and everybody say jack dont you know
you dont tug on supermans cape you dont spit into the wind you dont pull the mask off that old lone ranger and you dont mess around with jim
Well, a hush fell over the pool room Jimmy come boppin' in off the street
And when the cuttin' was done The only part that wasn't bloody Was the soles of the big man's feet, ooh yeah he were cut in about a hundred places And he were shot in a couple more And you better believe They sung a different kind of story When big Jim hit the floor.
If you don't recognize it or haven't heard it in years it's worth a listen on youtube, either studio or live there's lots of choices... a fun little song!
