A Dirty finger nails Plain Jane ClassicJacklore Plain Jane Classic Bushcraft knife
This is what I call a Simple but elegant knife, a "Plain Jane" :)
Sometimes simple is best.
A Plain Jane is a "Slightly" lower build value knife as it lacks Liners and a belt dangler.
Liners in this modern age of Stabilised woods and High strength epoxies are no longer necessary, they are just an Aesthetic, but in the past when glue's were not so good they acted as a Gasket between the wood and the steel. Some woods like Oak also contain tannins which could corrode the tang.
I am working on a Batch of "Plain Janes" at the moment, they are all going to be built to a similar spec as the knife seen in the video, so anyone who has showed an interest, this is what you'll get.
I also feel that the omission of liners somehow enhances the tapered tang.
Personally I prefer the simpler knife:)

That is a working piece of art. I have watch you for yrs, never boring. You make real knives that will do what they are asked. I want one so bad i can taste it , soon i will get one. Bless you and your family Sandy.
More great work by the best knife maker, best wishes Dave Chubb

I second this sentiment. There is an elegance to this sort of simplicity, a refinement of design married to function. I wish I was more of a social media person so I could try to get me name in the hat for such a beauty. Simply exquisite.
That was a "Plain Jane" knife? What on earth do you consider a work of art knife??? Love seeing the fruits of your labour. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Hi Sandy, I certainly wouldn't call any of your plain Jane, they are all beautiful creations.
Just stunning Sandy! What more is there to say????
Looked exactly like mine, but this - Black Liners and a dangler! K E E P C A L M and J A C K L O R E You're the best!!

Not at the moment Gabriel
Plain? I don't think so Sandy, not with those scales and the quad mosaics, anything but plain, gorgeous.
Hi Sandy are the liners just for decorative effect on the other knifes you make?

Here's a Cutn paste from the video description box "Liners in this modern age of Stabilised woods and High strength epoxies are no longer necessary, they are just an Aesthetic, but in the past when glue's were not so good they acted as a Gasket between the wood and the steel. Some woods like Oak also contain tannins which could corrode the tang."
Dirty finger nails ??? More like ‘an honest hard working man’s hands’

Knife making can wear away even your finger prints! They do grow back though :)

@@Jackloreknives I bought a new set of Japanese whetstones the other day and spent the next 5hrs sharpening every kitchen knife I have. Then realise that I have developed a habit of holding the knives with one of my finger tips over the edge so that it very slightly drags that finger tip on the surface of the stone. To sharpen one knife you hardly notice it, but 5 in a row and no finger prints left on that finger 🫤😂
