Dean Robertson jigged bone in emerald green. He calls it a cut down backpocket at 4" closed. It's flush in all 3 positions. Shadow pattern with a birds eye pivot using O1 steel.

Check it out! Received the reward from the most generous SciFi GAW from the LEGEND JohnDF

Nice little Boker one arm jack, only real fault is both springs a tad proud closed. Not a big deal to me but just saying for full disclosure. Its marked "Germany" on the shield, so assembled in Germany from outsourced parts? I'm thinking of dying it brown, anyone know if dying in hot rit dye will cause the shield to come unglued?

I'm a little late to the party responding to this, David. I've dyed at least a dozen or more RR's and have had 2 shields pop off while simmering in hot
water. I used super glue glue to reattach and they have stayed since.

Infamous maybe.
Glad it arrived and you like it.

Thanks, I did the little Boker and it stayed on,but I will remember that it is a possibility for them toncome off. I only dunked the Boker a few times relatively briefly because I wanted it just a bit darker but not completely re-dyed

My newest arrived today... my second 12 toothpick, this one in chechen rosewood. I really like the grain in this one. It's funny, that a knife I had no intention of ever buying/trying has captured my attention. My blue one is, hands down, the most "appreciated" of my knives by my friends at work. The universal response to seeing it was "oooh.. WOW, I LIKE that" And they weren't talking about the color, they were praising the design of the knife. GEC got the dimensions and blade shape right on these.

This I just scored on the Exchange. I've owned several but foolishly sold them. Glad to have been able to get another with such great character and well matched covers. Seller's photo.

Reminds me of William Stout’s formula for aircraft design: “Simplicate and add lightness.”

Admire that quote I think it could be applied, in a different context, to a particularly crappy pizza joint not far from here.. can't imagine why anybody would want a takeaway from there..

That Green Jigged Bone you just got in your collection is really impressive

Regards, Will

 

[joeradza]

Thanks Will Power it is a fine knife. As far as pizza is concerned too much is too much. Lol
