Comments: I have to admit that we've been big Jack Busfield fans for many years. In the 80s and 90s Jack's knives were the reference standard for inter-frame folders along with those made by Steve Hoel and it's taken a number of years for the rest of the market to catch up to them. By the way, even though Jack does not go to shows any more he is still making knives, and we have several of his best patterns on the way for those who are interested.
This classic Price Dagger pattern is in the larger of Jack's three sizes, and that leaves plenty of room for the master engravers of Creative Arts in Italy to work their magic. The knife is completely engraved on both sides and has some of the best small border work we've seen. 24 carat gold is used liberally on both sides, and really helps to set off the Gem Grade Apple Green Wyoming Jade scales. Absolutely delicious!
