hollow ground swedge. This .125" linerlock has thrust bearings, Superconductor

Could someone give some background/info on the Superconductor bolsters? They look really cool.

The Superconductor material is salvage material which was bought when the Supercolider project in Texas was stopped and dismantaled. It is made up of Copper and Niobium in a fused solid piece. These have been have then been cut as a cross section. Different patterns come from different size and shape sections which have been cut in a multitude fo different angles. It can be obtained at the Blade Show.

What a great folder Eric!
Nice meeting you at the OKCA last weekend.

It was great catching up with you and Kay at the show.

I dont know much about S/C, but get it while you can. Certain designs are gone.

This is true but there are still several patterns that will be around for some time.
