That sweet. The mammoth is awesome, and your snake clip is clever. I'm planning my first folder, yours is a nice goal to shoot for! Do you mind some questions? Like, what material are the liners? How thick? Material and thickness of the washers, ect.

Thanks for the compliments, Liners are .060 titanium, black g10 spacer about .022, I do not use washers, but cut a bearing race in to the blade before heat treat which gives you zero blade play and really smooth flipping action.
