All About Pocket Knives

I've made 153 knives so far, but only three have been bendy in the middle. Just got my third slipjoint up to "picture worthy." Couple of scratches left to polish. This one is 3/32 CPM 154, brass liners, canvas micarta, bronze washers, and brass pins. First time I've done liners and washers both. Nice and flush at closed and half, slightly low at open. Good snap to 1/2 and out, but a little weaker than I'd like on the in snap. Gaps on the liners at the front of the knife are from the thin bronze washers I used on the pivot, since I don't have a mill to relieve the liners. No gaps on the washers or pins. Point lays dead center.







And finally, next to a sodbuster junior for a size reference.

Super little splipjoint, Jason! At the first picture, I thought it was a fine new interpretation of the sodbuster concept, and the final picture made it clear. That one looks like it would fit in the pocket real easy. Nice work!

I checked out your website and really enjoyed looking at your work.

Jason I'm standing by........ready to field test that one for you. A couple of years worth of daily use ought to be enough to see how it's going to work.

Hey, you don't have to thank me....I'm here to help.

Nice work. A little bit like a slimline sodbuster. Should be VERY pocket friendly.

Very nice work!

Nice job Jason! I really dig it!

Beautiful fit and finish of the birds-eye rivet.
