Slip Joint # 5

[SVanderkolff]

Slip Joint number 5. I think this is called a Yukon pattern or at least that's where I started. Closed length is 4 inches, the blade is 440C the body is 416 with integral double bolsters, the back spring is O1 and the handle slabs are mammoth ivory. The nail nick is a through nick just because I like it.The spine is flush in all three positions and the blade is dead centred.when closed. I am not sure if I am going to sell this one or not. Please let me know your thoughts and any suggestions for improvements are more than welcome.
Thanks
Steve

Good looking knife, my only observation is that the through nick reminds me of a more modern knife. But I love the overall look

Very nice. I like the Scagel hole. Not modern at all.

I like the scagel cutout as well. Can you show the side profile of it closed? Interesting blade shape that would probably be quite useful.

I like it, my only critique would be to use a sabre clip blade next time.

That handle design looks very ergonomic. Love that shape. Beautiful knife!

Sweet blade. It would make a nice addition to somebodies collection.

I like it. I'd also like to see a side shot with the blade closed.
