This awesome knife is made by Gudy van Poppel, a Dutch knife maker.
Most of u will know Gudy as a knife maker, that makes more exclusive knives.
Well Gudy is now working on a more tactical line of blades as well!
This first edition is made in a batch of 12 pieces.
This is his first tactical framelock folder.
It has a flipper design with some cool features!
Its has ball bearing build inside of the titanium. T
he blade stop is build inside of the blade (if i remember correctly).
Its handmade with the help of conventional machinery. So no CNC machines have been used

Specs:
Total length of the blade: 9.3 inc
Blade length: 3.9 inc
Weight: 8.4 oz
Blade material: N690
Handle material: Fully titanium
Lock: Framelock

VERY nice! I would have thought CNC was used for the scales also. Makes Gudy's work that much more impressive.

I like that VERY much and the pictures show it well.

Well i've seen Gudy make these babies and i can tell you, he makes these on a regular mill and grinder. Great work in my opinion especially because Gudy's normal style is so different. when he tolded me that he was going for a tactical, I tolded him he couldn't do it. Boy did he prove me wrong!
 
Love this one! Can you post or PM me how to get my hands on one of these and how much they are selling for?

Best way is to contact Gudy himself. He is making different runs as i understood. But i`m not sure what his progress is. Be patient because Gudy is not much into all the computer stuff ;)
