Jason,

The more I look at it, the more I wish it was a bluer color to
match the bottom of the spy. I'm not too familiar with the material
used. Would someone be able to anodize it into a blueish color fairly
easily? Just wondering :thinking:

Thanks!

Ray

Agreed. Absolutely agreed. Although the only knives I have are in the kitchen

I PM'd you by the way about a knife I'm looking for. I don't mind the non-correspondence. Have fun at the symposium! :wave:

Being the lucky recipient of this one, a few thoughts from me. The knife is N690, just under 5 mm thick. Made to my specs, edge is 64 mm, OAL 113 mm. His pics are better than I could ever do, so for good looking picture, see his post.

The aim of this design was a knife that looked good, but was geared towards a scalpel grip, and it definitely delivers. Most of the details are there to help with the scalpel grip. Filework on the spine of the blade for the index finger, the three holes for the thumb, the jimping on the underside helps as well. So the harpoon tip might be redundant given the filework on the spine, but I still like it. There was a bit of back and forthing with sizes and all, but it was worth it, the knife fits almost perfectly in my hand.

Oh, and the bottle opener on the handle. It works. Who says alcohol and knives don't mix? The other knives Jason made in this style all had 3 finger grips, and the bottle opener was on the other side. When I asked him for a 2 finger grip, I also asked for the opener to be moved to the other side, so that when I did open bottles, my fingers would be pressing on the spine, instead of pressing the sheath (or my fingers!) into the edge. Not so sure if it's a problem on the bigger handle, but on this one, very good decision.

Came with a neck sheath as well:

Overall, an excellent little knife that works well for what I do, and looks good as well. :twothumbs

Genius!

If only you could make a pocket slipjoint DA..........for us UK people hog tied by locking legislation.

 

[gollum]

are you allowed small fixed blades?
I thought they were ok under 3"
thanks for the comments

and thanks to Th232 for your feedback
I am glad we could make this together
the idea of creating the ideal knife for a customer is added complication but very much worth it for the end user and gives me the satisfaction of making someone the ideal knife
I don't usually take orders because I like to let my design ideas flow as they come to me
cheers Jason

I think we can carry less than 3'' fixed but we mostly all live in urban settings compared to the others in our community here. I feel a bit weiered having a knife on my belt going to work and a fixed blade in my pocket is just asking for trouble I'm a folder through and through and already had a nice frame lock confiscated trying to get on a ferry. The van in front had a chainsaw in his van. My dinky folder, in my picknic bag, was confiscated. How I laughed!

 

[gollum]

that really sucks :shakehead

the small fixed blade knives I make are ideal for pocket carry
I also have a couple of nice neck knives in damascus patterns coming very soon
If you want I will post a few other small fixed blade knives
some older ones sold and other available blades

cheers Jason

Re: some knife pics ...

a few new pics of some recent work for those who are knife minded :wave:

a super mini stainless damasteel ... spent AGES making this one
finger grooves for micro hands and fully shaped all by hand and checked by 15x eyeglass sharp enough to whittle any match or toothpick that crosses its path :nana:

I am sure we would all love to see more of your work. I remain unconvinced that I need a neck carry or a fixed pocket knife. But your work could convince me . I love this one. Is it for sale?
Keep up the great work.

 

[gollum]

yes I actually still have this one
I swore I would make no more of these due to the strain on my eyes and fingers, so I kept one to show at a recent knifemakers get together
price is US$80 plus $5 shipping... I think thats around the 50 quid mark(?)
If you want it my paypal address is

Sorry to say guys, for an EDC in the UK it would have to be a sub 3 inch slipjoint.

For more details check the laws area of the britishblades.com forum.

Gollum - I thought I'd seen a photo of a slipjoint made by you?
