Hi, guys...

I ordered this a month ago and it was just dropped in my mailbox on Thursday, so I've had a couple days to play with it.
It is hard to describe just how cool this knife is.....
It's a new, small titanium framelock by Tim Britton.

It's the T-10.

I know I'm not supposed to link to anything and I'm not sure what else I'm not allowed to do...but if you like and enjoy carrying 3" knives...this is one you should definitely look up and think about buying.

So go take a look at it and let me know what you think.

The forum has quite clear rules on what you can and can't do. I would suggest you get familiar with them because it will make your experience here (and the rest of ours) much better.

To start with you could take some pics (we love pictures) and upload them to one of the many well known image hosting services and link them in the post so we can see what you got. Also, describe why you like it and what you plan to do with it.
 
You could post an image if you upload it to a photo hosting site first.

It is pretty sweet.
It flips really well. You get your choice of blade steels and handle finishes....and for a full custom, it's actually on the cheap side.

Have you used it for anything other than flipping? If you tell us how it performed, that would be something people usually do in a review.:thumbup:
 
It's good to gear that the T-10 flips well. You have a choice of S35VN or BG-42? Which did you pick? Is it tip down only carry for the clip? I only see this finish. Any others?

As I mentioned, I have only had it for a couple days so it has not been tested really hard.
To answer a couple questions at the same time...I chose the S35VN blade. The bottom of the blade near the edge is a really nice stonewash. The top of the blade is more polished, so there is a very pleasing two-tone effect.
It came with tip down carry and I did not actually inquire if tip up was available but there are no pre-drilled holes so that I can switch it myself.
The handle is available in polished titanium with various colours anodized in the fluting. It is also available in full natural titanium or full black...there may be more options but I am not aware of them.

The edge came very sharp...easily sliding through phone book paper and cardboard. I put it on the Wicked Edge yesterday and put a 20 degree edge on both sides and now it is unbelievably sharp...unless you have a Wicked Edge and then you know exactly how sharp it is.

It has been in my pocket for a day and it is small, slightly smaller than my XM 3" but it is slightly heavier. That said, once it is in my pocket, I do not notice it there and I can easily reach in to grab my keys.

I have not really "used" it for anything significant yet, but I assume the S35VN, which is the same type of steel on new XM's and Sebenza will hold up well...it certainly takes a very sharp edge.
