440c 3-5/8″ scagel style slipjoint in green canvas micarta

here is my take on a great 3-5/8″ closed scagel style slipjoint from Jerry Van Eizenga’s book on scagel style folders. this one has stainless liners and flush peened pins, and is about right in a loose front pocket or a back pocket or jacket pocket. the blade features my 440c stainless steel with single oil quench and 3 tempers and is ground nice and thin, the way a smaller every day using pocketknife should be.
