Description:

Adjustment of the handles relative to the plane of the blade is provided for by thumbscrews on the ends of the blade shanks and a toothed ring and collar arrangement. Adjustment toward and away from the blade is provided for by a threaded set screw with a tapering shoulder, which allows a toothed ring to disengage from a lugged collar. Tightening the set screw brings he collar into positive engagement with the lugged collar.
