Only have one Eye;but I still see good!

Post by knife7knut »

Long day chasing around trying to fix my wife's car;need to take a break. This little knife is my only Carl Schleiper knife.Nice looking but it has a bit of a problem that I doubt can be fixed easily. Apparently when it was made someone ground the bottom of the tang too much with the result that when closing it reaches the halfway mark(90 degrees up)and then snaps quickly shut! If you aren't expecting it,you will likely lose some skin off one or more of your fingers.DON'T ask how I know this!(the wounds are healing nicely).
