I could go for one of those. Reckon what length closed they'll be.

That's at the bottom end of my self imposed limits but that Wharncliffe main pushes it over the "edge" for me. Either Burnt Stag or a really nice acrylic would probably loosen my purse strings.

I'm right there with ya Jerry,dig the Wharny and 3 1/2 is about as small as I'll go. Looks like there will be a Tidioute version in Coffe House Acrylic.... which I really like.

I'll assume these will be single spring. If so I'll probably need at least one. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if they make 'em so the main blade has a siffer pull on these than the 3-blade 57s. ::nod::

Are these blades pinch-able out of the frame? I am looking for a smaller knife(first single spring) and am curious if you can pull the blade open without the nick?

Thanks
