3 slip joints

3 slip joints I just finished. I think I've made 6 or 7 of these using Chris's tutorial (thanks by the way). One walnut handle (that knife fought me many times and won) 2 birdseye maple handles. Blade and spring 440c and 416 bolsters. Any comments would be appreciated. thanks for looking. I still have to put in a couple of nail nicks and clean up the bolsters a little more.

Awesome! Those are really nice folders. I like the natural look they have, and there's something cool about slipjoints. I'm glad the tutorial was helpful. -chris

I love the look - reminds me of something my grandfather used to carry.

Thanks

THanks for the compliments guys. Chris's tutorial was easy enough to follow it didn't take much once I got a few of the kinks worked out. Ryan
