Amber Stag Folder Hunter
This knife by John is a hunter - skinner in the styling similar to a Case clasp knife,aka "Bulldog". Other variations ,the Tony Bose Yukon Skinner.
This knife is built on the money & is of heirloom quality,with large slabs of amber dyed India Sambar stag. Measures 4-3/8" closed, 7.5" open. Blade is 3-1/8" with 2-7/8" of cutting edge. Blade & spring are 52100 carbon. Liners are ss & mill relieved. Fancy shield is ss, inlaid & pinned,and inlaid at a spot where it is flush & smooth with the stag. Stainless bolster has a satin finish. This knife has the feel & color of bone but the durability of stag.
Perfect 6 pull,pinchable,locks up like a vault ,in the event you dress out a whitetail with it. This is an elegant traditional tank. Deep hollow grind,thin,wicked sharp. Plenty of blade. Handle is so comfortable, yet this folds up compact. Long pull & crescent nail nick,satin finish & a swedge on the blade. Blade centers,spring is flush.
A fantastic knife from John. You will be challenged to find a knife of this caliber at this price.

Amber stag is sold.
The Shadow Trapper you've posted is a good lookin' folder. I like em' without bolsters so much better. That's a fine blade profile too. Everything lines up great and is perfectly centered. Not a whole lotta custom folders out there that are as good as that one, especially for the coin.
