Teardrop Easy Open Jack Knife

Post by muskrat man »

This is one I recently completed for a repeat customer. It is a 3 1/2" easy open jack knife. It features nickel silver bolsters, brass liners and pins, fossil oosik handles, L6 steel, flat ground with a brushed finish. Half stop, also made a little lighter spring than normal, this is more about a 6 or 7 since it has no pull. It was a bit tricky since this is the first I've ventured into making a new design in a long time.

That sure is a beauty!

I love the clean lines. No nail nick. Everything just flows nice.

A real winner Kaleb.

This knife is a million times better in person than in pictures. I'll post some after I get a little use out of it.
The color of the oosik is perfect. I love it. Great work, Kaleb.

Well, it's wood in a sense. And it's definitely an 11!
