I've got the same problem with a guy who went off his meds and is now afraid we are all mad at him. He's hiding and we all told him its okay but he won't listen. A real shame because he is extremely talented.

There aren't that many knife makers in Belgium so he can probably afford to take his time.

I realize it is two different people with two different reasons. Waiting is still aggravating regardless of reasons.

Paul is that a caplifter/screwdriver blade on that jack?

Marty, the closed length is 3 1/4", the overall length with the master blade open is just over 5 1/2", but I believe the master blade is 1/4" or so short. Paul, I really like that Shapleigh jack with the caplifter blade.

The 15th edition of the Price Guide to Collector Knives just calls it a serpentine jack and lists it at $300 in mint condition. It is only the second Cattaraugus I have and I have no idea how rare it is in that pattern or blade configuration. I have a Cattaraugus book on order which should be here any day.

Hey Phil_______take a look at the ""2011 Blade Forums Knife""____ ::hmm:: I'm not a member,of that forum,but the knife looks very much,like the knife that Paul,has. The knife is to be made by, Great Eastern Cutlery, so it should be a very well made knife. ::tu::

That blade forum knife is going to be a great knife. Hopefully GEC will add
this to their line up.
