James D. Lippincott CASE Lever inspired Custom Automatic knife

Here is a Beautiful custom knife by James D Lippincott that was obviously inspired by the CASE 5161L switchblade. The knife measures under 4 inches closed and just under 7 inches open with brass liners and nickel silver bolsters and lever. The blade is full and untouched and is marked J.D.L on the tang and XX on the rear. Small rust spot near the XX mark and some light scuffs on the blade, but really nice overall and great profile. The scales are some sort of synthetic Faux Pearl with a little tan streaking and are in great condition. The knife works well with the blade tip just below the liners, good snap and good lockup open. Really gorgeous Custom Lever automatic knife!
