Here is the latest folder I finished. It is a light and slim 'gentleman's' folder. Easy one handed opening with the front opening tab, but it is not a tactical flipper.

'Tuxedo' folder. One-handed, front opener, liner-lock, W2 steel blade with polished hamon, rounded and filed thumb grip/opener tab, rounded spine, filed thumb grip on tang, black g-10 dove-tailed bolsters, white g-10 scales with black dots inlay, titanium pivot and scale screws, jeweled titanium lock and liners, black g-10 backspacer with polished flutes on the outside and 'stealth' thorn-and-vine filework on the inside.

That turned out great, John. It was a lot of fun getting to see you work out the details on it. Someone’s going to be a happy camper with that in their pocket :thumbsup:.

Great work! I love white ha dkes and front flippers. You did a great job from what I can see.
 
Wow, excellent work! I'm kinda relieved you didn't post it in the Exchange, as that place has been $draining$ my account of late :eek:

It is actually for sale though. :D
 
This has it all. So precise, so symmetrical, so.... 'simple'. Hardly.

How quickly did it sell? Lucky someone.
