My friend Jerry Halfrich has been making these for years and it is one of those things that I've been meaning to get around too for a long time. Well,I finally got a round TUIT.:biggrin:
This is a liner less,shadow pattern slipjoint with a sunken joint.
I will call this model,Big Trapper T&L (Thin&Light),but don't interpret that to mean weak and flimsy,this is a serious pocket knife for serious users.
The frame halves are .132" carbon fiber,the Sandvik 14C28N spring is .075" thick,the Sandvik 14C28N blade is .055" thick. See what I mean by thin?
This knife weighs 1.2 oz. See what I mean by light?
The flat ground blade is 3 1/4" long,the knife is 4 1/4" long closed.
I make and use stainless washers for tang clearance,and the escutcheons,pins and shield are stainless,did I hear someone say "low maintenance"?
Y'all take a look and please give me your thoughts on this type of knife and this knife in particular. And come see it at The Knifemakers Guild Show,Louisville Ky.,August,1st -3rd.
