I recently got this framelock made by David Lespect (France).
Medium sized, 3 1/3" blade of 52100 steel, titanium frame.
It is very well made, smooth, no play, good lock, blade perfectly centered.
It takes a crazy edge. I sharpen it on a Spyderco Sharpmaker and the resulting edge is as sharp as the original edge on my sharpest knives.
The blade stains fast in contact with food. At first I polished it out, but eventually I "etched" it with vinegar to get a more uniform patina.
If all goes well, a bigger version with a pocket clip should join this one
