i know its a crappy rendition but it gives you the idea of what tuffthumbs might be able to do for yah.

 

[Nathan Ihrke]

Now I want one...

I think the guy who said "Ti Military and a grinder" nailed it. Except you would also need a drill press and some taps for moving the screws when you shorten the handle.

Why don't you get a custom maker here to make titanium scales for a Paramilitary 1 or something similar? You'd get the round hole, solid handle, stamped clip, and made in USA requirements. It would be part production and part custom, so it would half comply with the first rule, but I'm sure you could get the knife made for much less than a custom folder if that's what you're worried about (probably less than even some high end productions). Plus, you'd have a proven design and platform for ergonomics that you're used to. The custom part of the work wouldn't be as difficult because it wouldn't require too much design effort, just copying of the g10 template.

Ok, I'll throw in my best try.

Check out the DireWare Solo V1
US made
Spydie hole
Full titanium
Not a custom but is only limited in production by the size of the company
I believe its a 3 1/2 inch blade

Let me know what I missed ;P

Happy hunting, if I won I'd love the Millie since I've never had one.

The biggest problem is the thumbhole opener. Designers of knives in this category typically want the profile to be as slender as possible so adding a big thumbhole will take-away from a sleek looks\.

Seems like your best bet would to be to pick your favorite and add the thumbhole afterwards.

Except for the thumbstud, how about a Protech TR-3?

 

[spydiesenses]

What about a Benchmade mini-skirmish?

Boker Anso 67 knife. A youtuber by the name of Tuffthumbz customizes knives and one of his specialities is this knife. The common configurations is it with a "spydie hole" (what you want) and titanium scales. I know this isn't production seeing how its aftermarket, but if you grail knife isn't found try it

Paramilitary 2 Ti framelock conversion.

Oh, wait, what do you mean you are keeping the Para 2 that you were going to give me as a prize?

 

[5.56]

Yeah guys, it has to meet the requirements in a production folder.

 

[Nathan Ihrke]

SONOFABITCH! I thought I found it with the upcoming spyderco techno but it is only a 2.5 in blade AND it has a wire clip...

I was looking at that earlier too and thought I had it.

^^^ Well, that simplifies things :foot:

If the SnG had a Ti scale on both sides, my search would be over.

The SnG is easily in my top three favorite folders.
