Jigged Bone trapper with filework purchased last year from George Levinson at WindyCity. Fresh from Bill when I purchased it, the knife is still in mint condition. This slip joint comes with a superb brown textured leather pouch handmade by Jan Mason in England as shown in the final pic (brown pouch)
Here is the info from WindyCity Knives:

This large slip joint folder features a CPM-154 steel trapper-shaped blade, 416 stainless steel front and rear bolsters, pins, and liners, and file-worked back-spacer and blade spine. The scales are beautiful amber jigged bone, and there is an inlaid large oval shield on one side. Bill put a lanyard hole on the rear bolster, and included a leather braided lanyard. The knife features a half-stop, locks up tight with no blade play, and the blade seating is perfect. Nice large nail nick, with a firm yet easy pull. Great walk-and-talk from the master!
Condition: New from the maker
