Hi Stockman, I'm sorry but my eyesight is not good enough(even with glasses) for such delicate work to give an accurate measurement. I can tell you that the first model has slightly shorter handle material than the tested frame XX and a little longer than the regular frame XX.

First model

Post by stockman »

Thanks for trying, I have a few 54 patterns but no tested ones and nothing to compare with on the xx's I would say that mine are all xx frames and not first model. I am new to this site and enjoying it very much, it is nice to be able to talk knives whenever. Stockman

It's redundant at this point, but I just had to say those are some gorgeous knives. Thanks very much for the pics.
