Here are two knives that made it to my mailbox this week :D A John Howser slip joint. 3" ATS-34 blade and closed length is 3 5/8".The scales are jigged bone with a shield inlaid.

And this Jeff Cover nice little folding skinner. The ATS-34 blade is 2 5/8" and closed it's 3 3/8" in length. The scales are Giraffe and are dovetailed.

That's a good question Useem, I don't know the answer. I have watched this particular knife for some time on a website that sells custom knives and loved the distinctive style and bone. I have never seen one like it before.. :)

Thanks for the nice comments..

Sunburst you have found a couple of good looking knives there. I really like the green bone scales on just about anything. But that Howser is very interesting.
