This was a special project I worked on this weekend. A tanto style linerlock in CPM154 with a chisel ground tip and edge:eek:. The blade is 3.75" long and .140" thick. Closed length is 5". The liners are .060" titanium, G10 scales and backspacer, Ti pocket clip, teflon washers. Comments appreciated.. Thanks!

Very cool Ray!

Not the normal style I'd be drawn to, but with your clean lines and immaculate execution.... it would be hard not to like it! :cool: :thumbup:
 
Thanks guys.. It's not the style I normally do but it was fun to make and I like the way it looks..
 
Very nice tanto, simple yet precise. I am sure it is a great cutter. very very nice job.
 
that is very cool. Have you considered using a Besh Wedge? Looks like it would fit the bill perfectly.
 
Ray, it looks great!!! Crisp, clean and I'm sure it has an ultra smooth action - Classic Laconico. For you folks out there who have never felt a Laconico folder open and close, it's like butter.
 
I love how simple it appears; looks like it would fit nicely in the pocket. I don't have one of your knives but I admire how cleanly they are executed.:thumbup:

Right Mike, you're being too kind! How's yours coming along? When I see it, I'm gonna want to quit!
 
Ray as you know I'me really a Bowie/Fighter man not into folders too much, this one could change my way of thinking!! Like all your knives nice clean crisp lines.
 
I just turned it into a tip down carry. I also took a little off the front part of the scales next to the ricasso. Here's the a new picture.

The chisel ground tip came out really nice. Looks like you could pierce a tank with it too :cool:
