Heres my first finished knife for 2009!It was a custom order.

Blade: ATS-34 3/16" Thick
Handles: TI
Spacers: TI
Latch: TI
Clip: TI
IKBS Powered with zero blade play!!

OAL is 9.6" with blade at 4.4".the customer wanted a squareish bent clip.but i did'nt have any TI thin enough for a straight bent clip.so i machined 5/32" TI and did a combo machined/bent clip.and to be honest i love it!!slides in the pocket with little force yet it is'nt going anywhere!i plan to do more like it only a little slimmer.This blue seems to be a hot color,glad i wrote down the voltage for it

Absolutely stunning, what size wheel did you use to grind this blade? I really like the grind lines, supper clean!!!

Thanks man!!

i used a slightly larger wheel on the main bevel..,it was a 6" smooth wheel.i used a 2" wheel on the top grind!

One of the nicest balis I have seen. Makes me wish they were legal here.
