Boys knife in ivory linen micarta. Some great walk and talk on this one, and a bit of a pointier blade profile.

one more left to go in this set. It will probably be long pull in the same ivory linen micarta.

"Pointier blade profile" = ::tu::

Ivory linen micarta makes a very elegant look 8)

A long pull spear blade would look really good with this frame too ::nod::

Absolutely beautiful. But I like Q's idea on the spear blade as well.

Hearing you loud and clear. My plan is to use the same frame for spear and sheeps foot. Sheeps foot I will modify the inside of the spring to let the tip of the sheeps foot drop down and get the blade as long as I can.

probably will increase overall frame size to be 3 5/8" more typical for basic jack knife.

Beautiful Knife! I agree the larger frame with a Spear or Sheeps Foot would look Fantastic!
