Tiger Filet

Post by Dick Carroll »

This is a Frost folding filet knife that I got at the flea market the other day. Used Florida Maple for the scales. 12 1/2" overall...

It was a new in the box Frost with plastic handle slabs. The lady had only 4 or 5 knives left. She said she was getting out of the blades biz. I paid her $5. It's a lockback and not particularly "real quality" but I wanted to reslab it anyway with this wood I got. I like that it is a folder. I tweeked the locking mechanism up a bit and added the brass back strip too...
