It's a large knife, John, 5 inches closed. I have to say, it's very pretty and well put together for a knife in that price range. I'm very satisfied with it.

Nope Floyd, not disappointed in the least.

Dang Glenn, are you trying to turn me totally green with envy? :mrgreen: ::mdm::
You've been scoring some amazing Wharnies lately that have me drooling all over my keyboard. Wish I knew where you're finding all these great knives.
What's the handle material on this Rhidian?

I've never been a fan of wirejacks; always thought they looked too insubstantial. However, I am a minimalist at heart; I love the plain, simple, unembellished, unadorned, basic, elemental folders. So when I found this interesting mashup of an old Geo. Wostenholm wire frame and a Queen DFC Carbon Wharncliffe blade, I thought I'd give it a try. I've been coon-fingering it ever since...can hardly put it down. ::nod::

No idea if this is typical fit for wirejacks, but it's really the only "flaw" I can find with this knife:

Just received a very nice 5 1/4" Queen Coke Bottle. Half stops, excellent bone, well sharpened. I have an impression that most brands give their Coke Bottles extra sharpening attention. I may be mistaken but so it seems to me. This was made in 2012.

You can't have too many 194OT's.
Actually this one is a SC503, same knife with different handles.

Awesome find ~Q~! ::tu:: I, like you have never been a fan of these knives and for the exact same reason as you, there just doesn't seem like there's a lot of knife to hold on to, plus prior to viewing yours the only models I've seen are beat-up and not very attractive to look at. But to see a copy that's still in great shape with a nice shiny Wharncliffe blade such as yours, certainly changes my opinion. I'll still not likely purchase one, but viewing them in the future will be a whole new proposition. Had you not pointed out the looser tolerance I doubt me or many others would have ever noticed it. I love it when you receive a new knife that surpasses your expectations and you just can't put it down, it just keeps getting more and more comfortable to hold! Enjoy! 8)

Lovely Garry! ::tu:: I love coke-bottles and matching that with those dark bone covers and shield just make it stunning! And it's BIG too! ::ds:: For a knife that's 10 years old it's in exceptional condition! Very nice, enjoy! 8)

Beautiful Jamie! ::tu:: It fits right in with all it's counterparts! I wish I could say I was visiting my mailbox, but alas, no such luck! From past experience I'd say it's a lost cause at this point, but ya never know, I might just get an unexpected surprise one morning, although I'm not holding my breath, well, not any longer anyway! LOL! 8)

Aye I knew you would get a rise from me mentioning a Canadian….. sorry about customs, I have not got any updates from the postal service.

No, don't feel badly man, you bent over backwards to make it happen, it's always risky and I knew that. I should not have been afraid that I wouldn't be able to reassemble the knife and got you to send 2 packages, but I didn't and the outcome really doesn't surprise me. Like I said, it could show up yet but I'm not holding my breath. Perhaps you're game to try again when I can afford it but this time send 2 packages? ::shrug:: 8)
