[David Mary]

What resources or advice can you suggest for making liner locks, and in particular getting their geometry right? Thanks!

Bob Terzuola’s book “the tactical folding knife” should have what you need.

This. Also you could check out the Ekim Knives youtube series on building a flipper...lots of good information on tools and techniques that apply to folders and knives in general.

Somebody already beat me, but yeah, he just re-printed an updated version back in late 2019 or early 2020. Still plenty available through his website, and worth every penny at twice the price.

Online Knife making books on Google

Google has an outstanding service called Google Books. They scan entire books, but leave out a few pages here and there. I have attached a few links to knife and sword making books for people to look at for a reference. I will add more as I run across them on Google. This is a free service...

How does it differ from the original edition ?

I don't think the original material changed much, but he did add in a couple of additional chapters, such as one on "multi-grind blades", an update to Bob's definition of a "tactical knife", and some "knife tales" at the end of the book.
