One of the most unique LB7s you might ever see...

Post by snorkel »

This is a stainless steel framed (liners and bolsters) Drop Point LB7 with
beautiful Bocote scales from Bell Forest products.

The stainless frame came from a Colonial LB125, the blade, rocker,spring and butt spacer/spring keeper are from a LB7. There is now a orphan brass frame :-) Oh, and the spine/rocker bar is fileworked with a vine pattern.

This thing turned out incredible, and it goes to show you how incredibly close the LB125 from Colonial is to the LB7 pattern. I had to do zero modifications for this the parts just fit.
These pics show it sanded to 220, I still have a bit of finishing on it.
