Stretched Jasmine Linerlock

[raylaconico]

Here's my latest folder. I decided to make a stretched version of my regular Jasmine model. This one also has a full flat grind which I like better than the old saber grind. The blade is CPM S35VN, .135" thick, 4 1/8" long, overall is 9 5/16". The handle is black G10 with Ti liners and custom Ti pocket clip. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks for looking.

Nice Ray. I like a bit of extra hand room. Looks good drawn out.

I keep seeing pictures of your stuff and I gotta say, they are the SHIT!

Ray another one out of the park. Nice one.

Thanks guys. The knife is pretty long and thin compared to what you usually see these days. I think for most cutting tasks that a folder might be used for, long and thin works well. Probably better than a thick and wide blade IMHO.

Great looking and functional design. Black G10 is always sharp.

Stunning knife Ray, the size is good and I agree flat grind works best. The black g10 makes it look like Batmans blade

One of the best liner-lock folders I've ever seen. Superb!

Very nice looking knife, so clean! I got see a slipjoint you made at small N.E. show, you make some nice folders!

Thanks again guys for the nice comments. I just finished this one and I thought I'd post it here to compare a stretched Jasmine to a mini Jasmine. The blade is 3" and the opened length is 7". This one also comes with my new fancy pivot screws.
