Description: Stan Buzek is a part time knifemaker living in Caldwell, Texas. Stanley mainly makes slipjoint pocket knives, liner locks, and frame lock folders. His knives have been features in Blade Magazine, Knife World, and several editions of Knives Annual.

This Texas Jack Slipjoint with Antique Rag Micarta shows Buzek's high precision work. The clip point blade is hand ground CPM-154 stainless steel with a meticulous hand rubbed satin finish. This powdered metallurgical steel has a particularly small grain structure, making it take an extremely keen edge and hold it while remaining tough and chip resistant. The blade can be easily opened using the right-handed nail nick. The blade has consistent, smooth action and a firm half stop.
Antique rag Micarta handle scales meet perfectly with 416 stainless steel front and rear bolsters. Showing tremendous craftsmanship, the bolsters are integral to the liners. The liners are hand fileworked. The left scale is inlaid with an antique linen Micarta shield.
Excellent work throughout!
