Hello everyone. My name is Frank Fischer. I am 24 years old and took a recent extreme liking in building fine machines. I work out of my father's shop which is I believe is 1 of 2 in the world which builds damascus and runs a CNC mill. My father is Todd Fischer, who has given me the knowledge to complete a work of art. I draw all of my own designs and operate every machine in the shop including the haas CNC tool room mill. I truly enjoy building knives and I expect a long term commitment with the steel. I guess it rubs me the right way. Anyhow check out my first knife let me know what you think:

-4"x1.5"x3/16" s60v stainless blade scotch bright finish w/ surface ground flats 9.5" OAL
-ti jeweled frames
-black g10 onlays with orange g10 inlays, via cnc
-orange g10 backspacer
-orange g10 thumbstud spun on the lathe with a black g10 insert to dress it up a bit

Welcome to the forum Frank.

The knife sounds great but your pics aren't working for me. I'm seeing the x

Good luck in your venture.

I like it. The Frank Fischer Journeymen's Folder. However, I also like the name "Jaw dropper," as that is what happened to me when I saw your knife!
