Jason Ritchie Cattle Punch Prototype Slip-Joint Folding Knife (SOLD)

Jason Ritchie Cattle Punch Prototype Slip-Joint Folding Knife (SOLD)

Jason Ritchie is from Hanover, Illinois. He is a former Marine and has spent the last 20 years as a full-time Railroad Signalman.  As a part-time traditional slip-joint knifemaker, he built his first knife in 2020.  Jason got started in the knife industry by doing production knife handle modifications to Case and Great Eastern Cutlery knives a year earlier.  To look at and handle one of Jason’s knives you would never know he has only been making knives for a couple of years, let alone the fact that he is self-taught.  His work is that of a much more experienced knifemaker. Jason draws his inspiration from the late, great Tony Bose, as well as from Reese Bose.  His attention to detail and fit-and-finish are testament to his commitment to his craft.  Jason is one of those new makers who should be on every slip-joint collector’s radar.  Windy City Knives is privileged to work with Jason. This is Jason Ritchie’s Cattle Punch Prototype slip-joint folding knife.  Both the spearpoint blade and punch are made of CPM154 stainless steel, hand ground, with a satin finish and cryogenically treated and tested at 60-61 HRC.  The relieved liners, integral slanted bolsters, shield and pins are all 410 stainless steel.  The scales are two pieces of creamy interior fossil mammoth.  The blade has a long pull and the punch has a nail nick.  Both the blade and punch are tight in all positions, and each sits centered between their respective liners when closed.  Nice walk and talk too!  Included with the knife is a Horween Leather slip made by HW Leather, and Jason’s signed COA stating that this is the Prototype.
