SOLD - Dressed in Monkey FRAG

John W. Smith makes at least as fine a knife as anybody in the Tactical Knife World--functional & effective, while being superbly Fitted and Finished. His work is extensively collected by his fellow knifemakers, and if he had a presence on the Knife Forums, his knives would bring twice what they now sell for.

Every time I am asked what is a good value in the Tactical Knife World--John W. Smith is my suggestion. "Who?" or "John W. Smith?" is unfortunately the reply I often get.

This Model is IMHO his best Tactical yet.

  • He made it for the 2014 Monkey Muster (www.MonkeyEdge.com) Knife Show.
  • And outfitted it with thick contoured Deep FRAG Blue-Grey G10 Handles that feel great and secure in hand.
  • He Dovetailed Beautifully Finished Titanium Bolsters Bolsters.
  • And Bladed it with a Slightly Over Thick Satin-Finished Clip-Point Grind.
  • The Tip-up Pocket Clip's Finish Matches the Bosters.
  • There are Dual-Scallops that Facilitate both Righty or Lefty Blade Deploy.
  • The Backstrap is made of Matching Blue-Grey G10.
  • The Geometry of the Action is Perfect, as is the Feel/Resistance of the Action.
  • Lock-up is Textbook Good-Perfect 100% Far Left-side Overlap.
  • And Lock Release is purposely Just Tight Enough that one will not in any situation accidently release the lock.
  • Specs: 3 1/2" Blade; 8 1/4" OAL; 5.45 Ounces. 'Bout Perfect for EDC
  • Condition: New from John's Lottery at this year's Monkey Muster at the Monkey World Headquarters in Arizona. I did not win it, but I bought it at the show from the guy who did.
