Hey Guys,

Almost done with the first knife. I just have to do final grind on the blade, add a black Ti rock finish to the handles, make the clip and finish the pivots, should be Sunday or early next week.

This copper backspaer came out great, the knife is know perfectly centered and flips great.

Very nice knife. The other day I was wondering what a spacer like that would look like. Thanks to you I know it looks great.
 
Hi Guys,

Finished grinding the blade. I went with more of a slicer grind for the first one versus my original design. I'll be doing the original grind on the next knife when I finish building my grinding jig. This blade grind was done free hand, which is a goal of mine. I have been practicing a lot, but the learning curve is very high and my skill very low lol.

I added a free hand radius to all the edges, which at my skill level was quite a challenge. Made a custom pivot.

Only thing left is the clip, putting the blacken Ti hammered finish on it, and copper wash the blade. I'll probably be done by thursday.
