It's an M. Klein and Sons, Chicago, Made in USA

Started as a rope knife with cheap plastic handles. Now its a wharnclif with homemade jeancarta.

Feels good in the hand and snaps dangerously good!!

these type of edc's are my favorite. I particularly like the single blade versions in that size. and they are my favorite to restore too...

I think I payed $5.00 for it. The bail keeps getting in my way closing it, but it makes it more unique ::shrug:: Besides I already drilled the holes.

Jeff,
If you want a tighter bail, put it on like the TL-29 bails.
The bail has a hole in the end of each side and the pin is through the knife & kept on with a head spun on each end of the pin.
It is easier to tighten that system up and keep the bail from flopping in your way.

Nice work BTW.
This was one of the first knives I ever customized.

That's a good idea!!

Only problem is that where the hole is on this little dude I'm afraid the blade will hit it.
And I just took a bail off of a TL-29 yesterday.

Thanks,
Jeff

You may have to move the bail back to the rear pin & put it on there.
