jds1 asked if I could do a WIP thread of his Friction Folder, so here are a few pictures I took this morning.



Components laid out







Pin placement is crucial for proper functioning







Semi finished product, lots of detail work still needed






More to follow.....
 
Thanks for the photos John. I've been wanting one of your FF for quite some time.

Nice! There is a lot of work involved in making your knives, I am always amazed when you turn a pile of raw materials into a life-long lasting tool.

Congratulations Jeff!

Rounded handle, clip made and installed.



This shows it all completed, the screws that hold the handle together have had the heads turned down and countersunk.

 
Nice. I love to see how stuff goes together. Not that I could ever hope to do it myself but I still like to watch.
