I thought I’d share my most recent pocket knife build. This is a framelock design with flipper opening. It runs on bearings to help the flipping action. Bothe the frames and handle are titanium and blade is Nitro-V stainless. I milled the pattern in the titanium scale and have it a sandblasted finish. Backspaced is Orange G10. Inside the hardened stop pin runs in a milled slot to give the open and closed position. A ceramic detent ball provides the positive closing and makes sure it doesn’t open in your pocket.
Theae are tricky little buggers. Lots of opportunity to stuff up the folding/locking geometry but satisfying to finish and carry in your pocket for everyday chores.
Thanks for looking
Ian
