I am putting up for sale Proto #1 of my new auto design.. Crisp clean action with no creep. A long lasting mechanism that will hold up to many thousands of openings... I believe this to be the first double action rocker bar auto design ever made, and it's so rugged it has survived be repeatedly dropped on a hard oak surface from a foot high without setting off the mechanism, and some were direct button hits. It has proven to be very dependable, and this design should be around for along time to come. This knife is beautiful in both design and appeal ! There will only be one #1 , and this is the start of my first custom auto run of 10 reflections.

Thank you for looking,

This thing makes me want to rob a bank and get two of em from ya!!! Any good knife collecting Judge would understand...Right? That is one AWESOME Folder!!!! WOW!!!
 
Thank you so much... you guys make all the hard work and effort worth it ! It doesn't take an engineer to see the beauty in this knife... but when you are one, you understand more of what it would take to make it !

Wow, could you make me a poor man's version with a frame lock? :o

If I had the money I would get that in a heartbeat. Great Job :thumbup:.
 
I was looking at that the other day on your site, wondering how much you wanted. Its a little (a lot ) out of my price range. That said it one of the nicest autos I have ever seen. Wish I had the dough.
 
I love the way that you mirrored the design in the frame into the blade as well. Truly a beautiful piece of art. The finish details looks AMAZING! I'd really like to handle this knife, it looks substantial and balanced. Just wondering, what size blade is it and how much does it weigh? Kudos on a brilliant effort..

Best regards,

Nick
 
Thanks for the interest in this knife...it is interesting. I will be getting the price down on these after the prototypes are gone... so be patient , and they will come. With the protos I forge the mold, and this allows me to create the run. Thank you sheila, it is very sharp....and my site will be getting better and better,with prices, a few new pages, and new knives coming soon.....On that mirrored machine work...it is mirrored in the closed position as well, which in it's self, was difficult to acheive, and it's a first in knives.

I must stess that these proto's are an investment not only in me, but are an investment in the advancment of knife design and technologies. It still takes people that are willing to invest, to make the knives of the future ! I can't do it alone, it takes help from you to bring about real changes and advancements ! And I say Thanks to all those that have allready invested in me.

Wow! That is one beautiful knife! One of these days I'll be able to afford one of these masterpieces. Until then, I can only drool. But, please keep me in mind as you go to production.
 
I forgot to answer the Cooks question up above..and I do apologise.. The blade length on the reflection series is 3 3/16" long from tip to front of the frame... and she weighs in on a postal scale at 5.0 ounces exactly. Overal open length is 7 1/2 inches and closed is 4 1/2" .

Brad
 
Very nice. But at the price point it's out of my reach (twice and 1/2 again my monthly salary!) and I got fat kids to feed :)

However any idea how much a non-proto would run?
 
wow whoever bought this one is going to be one happy guy/gal Im sure.

seriously, you could be wearing leg warmers and still be off the chart in terms of coolness if you have this knife on you.
