New LW Gravity Knife

[batfink9]

Hi

I must confess that I dont know much about knives at all but I bought this Gravity knife from a trusted source to add to my LW/FJ collection. I wondered if anyone could tell me any more about it, i.e. is it a gravity knife, a take down gravity knife, is there a difference? Also is there anything special that I need to do to store the knife and keep any mechanisms in tip top condition. All comments welcomed

Appears to be a nice example of a takedown gravity knife by SMF. The takedown version is most easily identifiable by the blued finish, the square button in the grip and the the arrow on the bolster.

Hope that helps,
Skip

Looks nice, is the blade matching numbered to the case?

What are the arrows all about?

The arrows match up so it is assembled correctly.
