My Dad and I have been making knives in BC, Canada since 2013. Until now we've only done fixed blade kitchen and outdoor knives. We are excited to say, we've developed our first folding model! We wanted to design a simple, affordable (relatively), yet high performance edc folder. The Skaha, as we've named it, is a flipper with a 3.3" blade, G10 scales and our version of a "liner lock". Instead of a full liner, we inset a stainless lockbar into the G10 handle. This cuts down significantly on weight and works the same as a traditional liner lock, and looks pretty sleek too. The only part of this knife we aren't making completely ourselves (besides small hardware), is the pocket clip.
We mill our knives on a CNC mill and then do many hand finishing steps before and after heat treat. You will notice we leave the milling lines on the bevels on most knives because it looks neat, doesn't affect performance and reduces cost to both us and the end user. Anyway, enough talk. here are the specs and photos! For additional info, photos, or to purchase a knife visit the website or PM me
