I worked this one in along with some custom orders that I'm wrapping up. This is my latest folder design. A little smaller than my first two, but still plenty big enough. The TI liners make it a lot lighter than it looks! Opens so smoothly that a slight push on the studs snaps it right open. Milled grooves in the handle add grip. I kept the prototype somewhat simple, but I have a "fancy" version on the bench now.


  • 3" blade, 7 5/8" overall open; 4 1/2" long closed
  • .125" thick blade, phosphorous bronze bushings
  • 154CM blade steel; Paul Bos heat treat at 59-61rc
  • Black G-10 scales over .063" thick titanium liners
  • Open build for easy cleaning
