Nice folder, Black Toe.
The handle resembles those made by that boy over in Alabama, who had worked for Parker, back YEARS ago. His name was Randall Gilbert, or something like that. Memory fades as the years add up. He had took knifemaking lessons from James Huckeba, who is dead now, was called Huck by many folks. If I remember that his name was not Randall Gilbert, I'll come back and post it. But Randall used to do the orange peel finish on some of those folders he made, titanium handles.
I prefer tip up pocket clip, but others like tip down.
Again, nice folder, keep up the good work.
Just hit me-Randall Gilbreath. That is who made handle like that. Then the copy cat extraordinaire, the fellow in Cordele Ga, can't call his name right now, he made some of those type folders also. Sheesh. Old age is a trip. Good grief.
Edited to add this:
Here's a picture of one of the many of R Gilbreath's folders that I used to own. Took this pic at least 5 years ago, maybe longer ago. You can see the same basic handle slabs but very different blade shape. I can't remember the blades steel. Maybe the same as yours, maybe not.
