Sold- A Ray Cover, Sr. Backpocket style slipjoint:
- OAL 7
- Almost 4" closed
- 3" hand rubbed 154cm blade
- Polished dark maroon and black linen Micarta handles
- Mill-relieved steel liners.
- The frame is satin on the outside and mirror polished inside
- Firm pull on this one, about 7-8/10 ( this is my first slip joint)
There are couple barely visible verticle marks on the blade towards the front right. If you roll the blade in bright light you can see them.
The knife had been Lightly used has been sharpened by the previous owner. I have not carried I cut some paper.
I sharpened it on a Spyderco Sharp Maker. I did it slowly and carefully- Its razor sharp.
Ive sharpened it but otherwise think it looks and handles like new really. Its beautiful and nearly perfect.
Would Trade + cash for a Krein PSK, Krein or Dozier of similar size or smaller.
$old PayPal or USPS Money Order Shipped USPS Priority Mail, Insured with Signature Confirmation.
PM or Email me through the boards if youre interested.
Thanks Mitch
The person I bought it from listed it as:
Lightly used has been sharpened by me. LIGHT scratches on the blade from handling/storage/carry and are NOT mint. In excellent condition. With mill relieved liners.
Ray Cover, Sr. Backpocket style in black/maroon micarta (hard to see maroon except in bright light), hand rubbed 154cm blade. Firm pull on this one, about 7-8/10. 3" blade, almost 4" closed.
The person they bought it from listed it as:
Up for sale, a Ray Cover Sr. shadow slipjoint.
3-7/8" closed with a 3" hand-rubbed 154CM blade.
Polished dark maroon and black linen Micarta handles with mill-relieved steel liners. The frame is satin on the outside and mirror polished inside.
The blade has a nice firm pull and very smooth action thanks to its pivot bushings. It's no nail-breaker but it definitely inspires confidence. It's centered when closed and has a half-stop. The walk and talk on this knife is about as good as it gets.
Never used, carried or resharpened, but I'm the second owner, so the blade finish does show some minor signs of handling. I'd say it's in excellent pre-owned condition, but not quite mint.
(These are the original listing photos and the knife is basically indisinguishable from these most excellent photos. Used with the photographers permission.)
