yes, thats a jack knife. very nice looking. i used to have one but the blades on mine werent nearly as full as yours. i cant remember what the pattern number is for it, but it looks like a 2226 1/2, which is 3 inches long closed. how long is yours closed?

Serpentine refers to the "S" shape seen in several patterns
