Here is my 16th knife. I apologize before hand, as I have a few other knives that were finished before this one that I will be listing, but I have not had the chance to take pics.

Turkish clip blade with crescent nick, and a cut swedge
Hand done satin finish on the blade
Pull is a 5, the blade lies centered, and the spring is flush in all 3 positions
1/8" thick, flat ground Hitachi Blue #2, hardened to 63-64, and cryo treated
Tang is tempered to match the spring in order to prevent wear
Closed length: 3 3/4"
OAL: 6 5/8"
Threaded bolsters, and mill-relieved liners are stainless steel
Shield is double pinned
Blue dyed Silky Oak scales



$425

Nice work Evan. Looking forward in seeing more. I'll email you, so that I can be on your list.

Thx, Todd
 
Thank you for the nice comments, everyone!

I didn't really like how the last pictures looked, so I took some more and swapped them out.

I also dropped the price a little.
 
Thanks for the post below--I'm editing out my question to avoid confusion.

Very handsome--nice scales and alluring blade profile. :thumbup:

Could you double-check your dimensions, please? Closed length of 3 3/4" with OAL of 7 5/8" suggests a longer blade length than would ordinarily fit inside that size handle.

Whoops! You are 100% right. The OAL is actually 6 5/8"
 
I have some silky oak cut into slipjoint thickness scales from BurlSource, but this is the first knife I've seen in the wood. Looks phenomenal! If only I had the funds. Great work.
