A while back I was begging for a small piece of 1/16" 440 C. Stan Buzek graciously supplied me with an ample piece of steel.
I don't normally work with stainless, but I needed this for a special knife necklace for my wife.
Ms. Debbie helped design the successful Leverletto switchblade, and actually came up with the name.
I have made 3 or 4 half sized Leverlettos in the past, and each time she wanted to keep them-so I decided to make one for her.
The knife is about 3-3/4" open, and closed is about the size of 3 standard computer keyboard keys. All fittings are nickel silver, heavily silver plated. The 1095 backspring is also silver plated. Liners are coined. Integral bail on butt of knife. Handles are 1950s presentation grade mother of pearl. It's a fully functional switchblade knife.
Sorry for my lousy photography.
