Brian Tighe- New "TIGHE DIE" Daggers!

[Neil Ostroff]

Brian Tighe sent us these two photos yesterday. Two new versions of his Frame Lock Flipper Dagger, the TIGHE DIE.

These are both with Sculpted Carbon Fibers handles- Brian tells me that he is using a new “Inlayed Titanium” locking system, where the liners are embedded into the frame.

He feels that the balance (blade to handle) on these knives is excellent because of this locking system and the resulting overall weight distribution.

The plain blade is Stainless BG-42 Hand Rubbed and the Damascus Blade is Stainless Damasteel. Both blades are FLAT GROUND and very sharp!

These are slated to be released at the Blade Show in Atlanta- actually, not too far away….

Hope you like these- I think they are really cool.

Take care, Neil

PS- Brian is a pretty good photographer also…….

I saw these on Brian's website, yesterday, while surfing for knives (I was on break, honest ).

Pretty cool.

What a nice guy Brian is! Enjoyed meeting him last year at the show. This looks like another awesome example of his work. Paul

Neil will there be any chance of getting a look at these at the Canadian Knifemakers Guild show this weekend in Toronto?

Great knives, Neil - these won't last very long before they are sold!

George- Yes, I will be getting these 2 knives from Brian just before the show.

Great knives, Neil - these won't last very long before they are sold!

Thanks Boink....BTW- Brian makes left-handed knives..


Take care, Neil

I do and I agree! Lots of good features there...flipper and stud, framelock, intergral guard, flat ground etc...

The lock mechanism sounds interesting...I look forward to seeing them at the show!
