Here's a couple of it closed. The one in natural light shows the color of the maroon linen micarta better.

Thanks, Jeff. It's 3 1/2" closed with two backsprings and no liners. It's nice and comfy in hand with the sunken joints and the lack of a third blade allows the sheepfoot to sit low in the frame. Here's the original thread that Gene posted in the Knife Maker's Gallery with the rest of the specs and some more pics.

This is a great knife! Thanks for sharing--it's one I hadn't seen before, and now I'm intrigued.

I have my new Pemberton on me today--boy this thing is small! Still trying to find the sweet spot for sharpening though. The grinds weren't perfect, and I've got it sharp but not scary sharp like a little scalpel should be. It's my first GEC, and I'm mostly pleased with the fit and finish, although there are some small nits. In any case, the design is a sure winner. Is it too early to teach my 5 year old to handle a sharp knife?

Off topic: I like the Lamy, Daniel. My son has a clear one he turned into an eye dropper fill, but never could get a perfect seal. He writes with his red one daily.

Back to knives, I wish I liked swell centers because the Pemberton and Blaine's Conductor are the size I enjoy.
 
Emerson Mini-Com in right pocket, small little pointy Kershaw and a Native in the left pocket. Native is two years old. The Emerson is a 2006, so riding the past 7 years in the pocket and the little Kershaw about 10years old. I have a couple I rotate for EDC and just guess these where good choices :-)
In my notebook bag I carry with me there is a custom CK hunter and a Busse MUK....
I just feel you will not necessarily be at home, close to a BOB when in a SHTF or EOD event
 
Gevonovich - that Barlow is just a beautiful (G)oldie :) but it still has some decades of life in it, I think

Today my Case Texas Jack and a Small Utica Jack followed me through the day.

Kris, you've been workin' that copperhead far too hard . . . I think you should send it to me for a vacation! ;) :D
