I am so jealous of people who can make folders.

I am going to have to try it someday.

Nice work!
 
Wow it looks really great. The filework is excellent. What material are the liners and the backspacer?
 
Very nice for a second effort. You will get even better with practice. Make a third with stainless or stainless damascus, I hate the way steel rusts in my pocket, and I might even buy it. I like to vote with my wallet. Vote early, vote often.
 
the liners are 15n20 and the backbar is 1084. as far as a stainless or stainless damascus i can't say that it won't happen but i sure wouldn't hold my breath waiting. I have bought into this whole carbon steel is better thing and can't seem to shake it.
 
That is a very nice knife. I really like the overall design and that is some very good filework!
 
I'm impressed. You aren't tellin' a fib, are ya? This is only your second folder!?

Say, I'll miss you this year at the MKA show, as I don't have the time (and enough pieces),
done for both it and the Blade West. Are planning on attending?

Best regards,
Dana
