***SOLD***
*PJ Tomes Remington Baby Bullet* frontlock with sweet stag scales. It's 3 3/8" long closed with a 2 5/8" blade (Sandvik 12C27 steel with PJ Tomes' great heat treatment). Stainless bolsters and liners. Wonderful matched stag scales showing PJ's usual skill in finely fitting them to the knife -- no fat, clunky stag scales here. Front lock requires only firm pressure to disengage. Has been (lightly) carried, used, and sharpened -- though it's hard to tell. Action is smooth, lockup is solid - no blade play that I can feel. Snap is modest. Note that the spine of the blade is rounded - so you won't see an "invisible" fit with the flat lockbar back when open -- see the scan below of the back when opened. Asking $330 (was $375) -- USPS Priority Mail included CONUS only - PayPal instant payment only please (fee included) -- insurance extra (recommended). [Just saw on PJ Tomes' website that as of July 25, 2010, PJ Tomes is semi-retired from making knives.]

Here are some additional photos to answer some questions about the edge and blade finish:
Hope these are good enough to help -- my scanner is not the greatest for this.
