Well i like toothpicks but I'm beginning to think I don't like making them. This one works great but the fit and finish on the handle is not as nice as I'd like it to be, i'm pricing it accordingly.

Specs are:

Blade - 3.1" x .095 CPM154
Spring - CPM154
Handle - 303 SS bolsters, liners and pins with red G10 scales
Closed - 4.1"
Open 7.2"
Other - Half stop

*SOLD* Price - $250 shipped (cont. U.S.) paypal users please cover fee or arrange to send check or money order.

Thanks

Thanks.

I thought i liked working with 303 at 1st but after this knife i'm reevaluating, If you have coutures to shape and sand it very unforgiving. i've got some 416 and 410 I'm going to try next.

This one is SOLD
 
Les,

Keep 'em coming. I have enjoyed your work over the last few years and now that you are getting into slipjoints I see a few of yours in my future. I hope this new addition to your style will be good for ya.

Looking forward to talking with you at Blade again.

Toothpicks are HARD! Overtravel on the blade and resulting spring rap is a common problem, even with production knives. Yours looks real nice...very clean. :thumbup:

Les,

Just make about a 100 more of them and you will love making them. ;):D
As said before your work always looks very clean, so keep making them. :thumbup:
