I have been looking for a traditional style lock back folder for a while and finally settled for this, Its Tim Brittons large bullet model with stag scaled.
Tim was a pleasure to deal with and the knife arrived shaving sharp as you will see in the pics below. I feel the overall style is very non-threatening to NKPs, with it's classical pen-knife looks superb finish.

Large Stag Bullet
Blade Length:: 3 1/8"
Overall Length:: 7"
Closed Length:: 3 7/8"
Blade Steel:: BG-42
Hardware:: 416ss
Handle Material:: Stag
The fit and finish is very good, when the knife is locked the join from blade to lock is clean and flush. It opens and locks with a satisfyingly deep click with no blade play, the lock is a little stiff to close but should become easier when broken in. This is not a particularly light knife at 95g and is fairly noticeable when in my pocket.
Straight from the packaging it was hair popping sharp and slices well.
I'm very pleased with the folder and also the service from Tim.
