A catch and release for me of this very solid small folder by a South African maker by the name of Tinus Stone.
Blade is N690 and 2 1/2" long, overall length is just at 5 7/8"
Handle is a neat combination of blue maple bolsters and black micarta scales with a blue liner.
Now the blade has quite a strong pull to the half stop, it's pinchable (since there isn't any nail nick) and to go full open it is a little lighter pull but still stout. With a name like Stone, you'd expect a solid folder!
I have sharpened this to it's betterment, mirror polished edge bevels.
It includes a small leather slip sheath by the maker.
Price shipped in the USA is $old which is what I just paid for it, so recouping that cost and adding the sharpening in for free.
Payment by US Postal money order or check if I know you, I do not have paypal.
