OP GeneWiseman New Member G Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 15 Watts OK	This is a backpocket knife that I recently sold on Blade forum.It is 4 3/4"closed and 8 1/4 overall. It has G-10 scales and stainless liners.This one is 1095 high carbon steel but I am now using D-2 steel. I make 2 smaller versions of this knife with liners and an ultra-lite liner-less version. Thanks for looking.

There is no locking mechanism to hold the blade open correct?? Thanks Tim Last edited by michiganroadkill; 03/31/11.

OP GeneWiseman New Member G Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 15 Watts OK	I appreciate all the kind words. There are no photos of the 3 1/2" model online. I have just made them as special orders so far. I will have to take pictures of the next one that I make. I do not make any liner locks at this time. I put the photos on flickr so I could transfer them to blade forums to sell so I never thought to label them. Computers are new to me and I am just beginning to figure out what is possible to do on here. I will eventually get things sorted out and make it a little easier to see what I have made. Also the big knife is only available with a clip point blade, other than that the 3 7/8" knife is just a miniature of the bigger back pocket knife. Thanks for your interest, Gene

Getting interested in one. --Is that 3 7/8" length when closed???? and __open?? --Same blade shape as above pics of bigger back pocket knife?? --Handle material options?? --Steel options?? Thanks Tim I can't remember the exact overall length but probably around 7 1/4". All the blade shapes on my photos on flickr will be the same price (clip, drop/spear point, or wharncliffe)but the big knife is only available with a clip point blade.I use mainly G-10 for my handles and can get about any color that you have seen elsewhere. I also use some micarta if I can make it look good.The only steel that I have used other than D-2 is 1095. 1095 is a little cheaper, but I think I can make a better blade from the D-2. I will probably expand to other steels later but would not want to sell anything until I am sure that I can do a good heat treat on it. Thanks, Gene

Well, that http:// part that follows the second one and runs through the .jpg part is all you needed. Put that bit of the link (make sure it's the .jpg part, and ends with .jpg) in between the bracketed-img and the bracketed-/img and you're good. And, I echo passport's post, completely.
