Up for sale - a full-dress Warren Osborne Policemate pattern from the '90s with serial number 001. It features the unique Osborne-designed reverse liner-lock that's easily opened and closed with one hand, and a deeply hollow-ground polished Mike Norris stainless ladder damascus blade. There weren't many of these made, and this is the fanciest one I've seen.

The pivot bolt is flush-ground with the stainless bolsters and both are given a fine hand-rubbed satin finish along with the blade and handle spines and the stainless pocket clip. The polished blue/green/black G-10 scales are pinned to the stainless frame, which is assembled with six large torx screws, each with a polished facet cut into the head.

The lock relief bevel is mirror polished, and the flats on the lockbar and blade tang are bead-blasted, as is the lanyard hole extension, so these's a lot of contrast between the adjacent surfaces. Lockup has zero play, and the blade is centered in the handle when closed.

7-7/8" OAL with a 3-1/2" blade. The frame is only 0.35" thick excluding the low-profile pocket clip. 3.8 ounces.

Condition is mint with some light handling swirl on the obverse bolster. Never used, carried, sharpened or adjusted.
