JTK Picklock

Post by portlandmike »

I just realized I hadn’t shown off my first JTK knife. Fit and finish are perfect. I can’t feel the pins at all! What a difference from the stuff coming out of Italy recently. I’m calling it Straight Switch ... I feel very lucky to have this knife in my collection.

Lol, thanks for not mentioning that the button fell off it when you got it. I hadn't realized that was you that I sent it to after I fixed the button.

The button had come off the rocker so you could actually pull the button out of the scale. I resoldered it so it won't fall out.

If you don't mind my asking... did you build this knife from scratch or was it a conversion of some type? hard for me to tell...

It was all flat sheets of metal and a cow before I started.
