The blade to handle proportions are just right. Most people end up with a blade that looks too short for the handle. Very nice work!
 
I could see how that could read wrong. Anyway, the colors really set each other off. I'm cooking up some ideas for a finish on a lock-back folder I'm repairing and learning about. Now that I got the guts figured out, I need a nice handle. Seeing this makes me want to work hard at getting a beautiful finish. Thanks for posting. Really clean knife.
 
This slipjoint is awesome! How much are you selling them for? And is it pinchable if not can you make the blade alittle wider so its pinchable?

Thanks! I'm not taking any orders at this time. If I were to sell anymore of them it would be on my schedule. It is pinchable. The nail nick isn't shown in these pics, but it's nice. Not necessary though
