What other makers make integral lock folders? I'm familiar with Tom Mayo's and Darrel Ralph's folders, who else?

Thanks,
Tom

Isn't there someone over in Europe named Mike Lamprey (or is it Matt?? Cant recall) His folder has an integral double guards on the blade. If someone knows who this guy is, help me out here...

Another maker is Farid. We're talkin' boat anchor heavy IBL folders. His handle slabs are massive!

There may be more but that's all I can think of off the top of my head at this hour

Yup, it's Mike Lamprey in England.

If you have never seen one of Reeses knives in person you owe it to yourself to do so!! His fancier autos and DA's are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!
I'm thinking green rag Micarta (thanks again Tom) with green anodizing. Any thoughts on this

I WILL offer a frame lock folder at some point in '01. It may only be ONE but I will make it to sell!!! Getting everything together to make folders RIGHT has been a slow road.

Hooo, hoo, yow!

Hey, has Kit Carson every made an integral lock folder? An integral lock M16 flipper would be just about the end.
 
I think that Senator and Blues have some of those rare Carson Integrals. If I recall there was a total of three...

Yes, Kit made three large integral lock Model 4 GT's with grooved titanium handles. Will Fennell, Blues, and I got one each. Funny, but I don't think any of us own the knives anymore.

Here's a pic of all three together. Mine was the double-ground one in the middle.

Here's a pic of the lock side.

Although I don't have that knife anymore, I do have first dibs if the current owner ever sells.

I have a beautiful HAWG knife from Mike Franklin with both the lock and the clip integral.

Neil, the hawg has a really long liner on the side of the liner lock. the clip is bent over to make a clip.Sort of like an extended liner lock and he folded the extra material to make a clip. Really nice and it is deep in the pocket carry since there is no screws needed to put on for the clip. It is a nice clip but I dont think it is very cost effective. You will loose material when you cut it out to make the clip but then you will never have to worry about your clip popping off when you r working. That happened to me with a BM AFCK I used at work.

Somebody help me out, here. Doesn't Rick Hinderer's Firetac line of folders feature an integral lock?

Senator,

Thanks for sharing those Carson pics. Awesome.

Why'd you sell yours, too big?
