I started a friction folder in Titanium and CTS-XHP blade steel with a blue twill backspacer. Check it out!

It's about 5-3/4" open with .125" thick blade and frames.

This one started with no design really in mind, I did my stop pin/pivot layout and ground until I liked it.




 
Never cared much for friction folders until seeing this one. Great overall design and blade shape
 
That is going to be really nice. I am imagining a compound / swage grind of some sort.
 
Now if the spine was the edge... and the edge was rounded spine.. :D That could be swell.
