This large folding lockback dagger from John measures in at 7 15/16" open, 4 1/2" closed, and has a 3 1/2" blade length. The interframe inlay is very nice white mother of pearl with a center inlay of Abalone. The blade is very finely satin finished while the handle is highly polished. With its flawless fit and finish, this is a great knife to send to your favorite engraver, or a keeper just as is.
