Hey guys. Its been awhile since I've asked a question, and I've been doing well. I'm still working on my first knife. All that is left is some finishing that I haven't gotten around to doing, but once I get it done I will post pics.;) What I am here for, though, is I'm working on the design of my next knife that I want to do. I want to try to do a folder. So what locking mechanism do you guys suggest for a beginner? I was thinking of doing a liner lock. Any pointers as far as how to design the tang? Thanks in advance for all of your wisdom! :)
 
Id go framelock but a liner lock is prety much the same but with scales added.I'd make it comfortable, take a look around at diffrent folders and see what design you you want to build... For a linerlock I like the handle design of rocketknives dragon series.... he also has a very thurough tutorial on how to make one.
