These two knives here are small swaybacks.
They both are 3-1/8" closed,5.5" open.Blades are 2-3/8" and have 2-1/8" cutting edges.
52100 blades & springs Carbon steel that is known to take & hold a good keen edge. These knives will patina up very nicely over time with use,adding character,and,the patina does actuall add to the corrosion resistance of the steel.
All other steel components are ss. Mill relieved liners.
Genuine sambar stag has bolster. Take a look at the stag on that knife
The shadow (bolsterless) is Stellar Sea Cow Bone,a real nice unique material,I have not seen many slipjoints done with it. Its perfect.
Medium firm snaps,great walk n talk & fit & finish. Springs are flush with the liners in all half stop positions. Blades center very well closed. Hollow grinds,wicked little cutters,satin finishes,crescent nail pulls
Beautiful hand crafted quality at affordable modest pricing.
Either knife $250. shipped Con U.S. with Pypal fee's included as well
Take a look and thank you....

This knife is the same pattern as the knife listed here :
