[h=1]I just finished up this knife over the weekend and it's on it's way to it's new owner. This is my M[SUP]2[/SUP] flipper folder design. CNC milled Titanium scales with all the linear "grain" lines cut by hand with a Dremel cut-off wheel. Sand blasting and anodizing completed the look I was after.
The blade is my "Reverse" San Mai Damascus with a 320 layer twist Damascus core and 52100 outer material. A heavy layer of Nickel in between it all gives that super bright line down each side of the 4" long blade. Overall length of around 9.5". This thing is a beast, yet it's fast and smooth to open and locks up like a vault! You can use the biggest hole in the blade like a thumb stud to open slowly, or flip it open just as easily as pulling the bottom tab.
The back bar is also "Reverse" San Mai Damascus, sandwiched between anodized Titanium liners. The pocket clip is Titanium and it's matched to the handle's lines and textures with hidden screws to keep it looking clean. [/h]
Lots and lots of hours in this one, but worth the time and effort.
Enjoy!
