Rolf is my uncle and we like a lot of the same knives, BUT......I am not sure about the idea of a friction folder. Maybe because I have never tried one??? To me, it is not about the lack of a lock but the lack of anything really keeping the blade tight in the open position. Even a slipjoint takes pressure to close.

Maybe I am way off base here but wouldn't a friction folder fall closed on you if you are not careful? If this is not the case then my continued thoughts from this point are also invalid

Let me know the deal uncle

That's one of the nicest frickies I've ever seen! :thumbup:
Who made it and that for the pix D!

Thanks man! I made it last year and I've been using it since then, mostly to open Guinness bottles (Beannacht Lá Fhéile Pádraig!!!) and light cutting duty, which in a urban environment, is 95% of the tasks.
