The 571 was a model that we made back in the day, we used to call it the 'Straight Back', it sports a 3" blade length.
The pair were made for a father and teenage son, both avid field sportsmen, the elder a knifemaker too, the younger is rapidly getting into it.
I like to think these reworks of the old patterns that I make are brought bang up to date, everything will be a little better than it used to be, fit and finish, that type of thing.
Todays market is a different one and some knives can command a higher price, a higher price means more time can be spent on them, more time spent on them should make them better, potentially justifying that higher price, hopefully?!
Bolsters/guards in this instance are 304SS, Walnut scales (supplied by the client), thin red liners.
