Half Friction Folder

[Serge Panchenko]

Hey everyone, just completed this one. This is my second friction folder with the 1/2 handle design. The blade on this one is clay tempered and antiqued 1080, handle is a copper and bronze slabs riveted together with brass pins. The pivot ring is damascus, and the stainless screws have been heat colored to bronze. Overall length is 6 3/8", closed length is 4 1/4" and blade length is 2 5/8". Hope you guys like it!

Serge- I love this style. VERY nice.
Will you make a Japanese Style blade sometime?

Superb idea!

I would like it in my pocket as I would no doubt slice my finger tip off but as a concept and execution - brilliant!

 

[Serge Panchenko]

Thanks guys. Rolf, sure will. Stew, the blade is chisel ground so the sharp edge sits flat against the handle.

 

[Win Heger]

Slick, as usual!
