My first picklock (11" modern)

Post by Jeff »

This knife was a swivel bolster from the 1st run of FB/Walts 11" - 5mm stilettos. It's scales are a composite of white mother of pearl.
Bill does magnificent work. It's now a picklock with nickel silver bolsters.
My last name is pronounced "Nickels" Thanks for the buckle Bill.

Wow! That's outstanding. Beautiful picklock! 8) 8)
Some folks call it a sling blade, I call it a Kaiser blade.

That is one beautiful knife. :)
I really like the grind on that blade, not your average everyday dagger. 8)

13,
Yes the blade grind is different than the grind on the 2nd run which is a bayo style (though the 2nd run included solid factory n/s bolsters).
