First friction folder. What say you.

[fishon217]

Like the title say's; this is the fist folder I've had the stones to make.
Making a folding knife has always been my goal, but until now I've been to intimmidated.
Yesterday I said'" @$#% it" and got to it.
It's still in a very rough state and I've got lots of finish work to do, but so far so good.
Everything functions great, and the blade is centered, with no play to speak of.
Let me know what you think of it so far.

I'm digging it as well!

Thank's all. I'm pretty proud of the way it's coming together.
It should look sick when it's finished up.
Onto the specs; the steel is .125, 1084,a la, the Baron.
The closed length is 4.5 inches, open length is 7.75.
The widest part of the blade is 1 inch.
.125 G10 scales, .125 G10 spacer.
Thank you again everybody, I really appreciate the feedback, good or bad.
