Hello all and thanks for looking.
Spring is my favorite time of year and wanted to do a little bird and trout type slip joint (this is a Turkey and Trout!) with more of a drop point blade shape.
This is a new pattern I'm trying out so let me know what you think.
Up for sale today is a slip joint in O1 with Walnut Burl covers (stabilized).
Nickel silver bolsters, liners and pins.
Mosaic pins on both sides (turkey and trout fly)
(this is one of the few I've made without coin edged liners, but I figured if you did use this to process a fish or bird, the coin edge could collect a lot of nasty stuff)
The pull on this is what I would call a medium. The blade sets low but can still be somewhat pinched open, see attached video, (my wife had no problem opening it with long nails), half stop, spring lays flat in all 3 positions and the tip is well centered.
Blade hand sanded to 600 grit finish.
OAL: 6"
Closed 3.45"
Cutting Edge: 2.35"
Price: $Sold(US shipping included)
(Questions, comments and feedback welcome.)
