Slippies and some help if you would;

[Gary W. Graley]

Here are some of the slippies I have or had

this one hurt to part with!

Now here is where the help is needed, got this one a while back, nice knife
it went to a good home, what I'm looking for is one about this size but with
either jigged bone, or knarly stag on each side.
And the reason for that, I do a small 'magic trick' slight of hand if you will,
by making it appear that the shield shows on both sides of the handle
when in fact it doesn't. This one had knarly stag on one side and
smooth stag on the other so it didn't work as well, the blades were and
are nice carbon and sharp, useful tools, I miss this particular size folder.

The one above, the Pearl #38 is also a great size but no shield.

You can see part of the knife here in this shot;

found some images;
Robert Klaas German made, Main blade is about 2" long, the smaller blade just under 1 1/2" long

​

Appreciate any help in locating a folder similar to this one,
Thanks!

What's the pattern on the first knife? I really like the handle on it.

Thanks it was a Wright & Sons from Sheffield England LambsFoot folder

I made several mods to the knife,
made it more wharncliffish blade shaped

Ground down the spine of the handle into a semi sway back

Ground down the front edge of the handle to provide a better grip as well
ended up being a very comfortable knife to use,

Looks great, as do the rest of the knives. I don't really have much, if any, experience with more traditional styles so I can't really help you with your question, sorry.

Case/ Tony Bose Collaboration Muskrat in Antique Bone with ATS-34 Blades. It is a great knife, made back in 2004, but now very collectible and hard to find. Good taste!

Not sure where you can locate any of them now, sorry
