This bike here is somewhere between “older than dirt” and “older than sliced bread.”

props to Nate and Mark and Jo for their help in heat treating this knife I'm working on. The tumbled, blackish finish was a surprise! Thanks, it looks great!

I am bias against liner locks because they havent held up for me during heavier use but that's one thing I sure hope the CPK folder doesnt have.

If a ferrous object gets magnetized and you want to demagnetize it, you can smack it against a workbench or hit it with a hammer. You can physically shake the atoms out of magnetic alignment.

Workbench would be better or something else non-metallic.

That's actually one trick to magnetize a ferrous object when you have nothing around that is magnetic, i.e. smack it against/with a metallic object repeatedly (anyone else remember that episode of MacGyver? Yes, I had to try it for myself).

If you need to demagnetize a bunch of things

I have no doubts that whatever our evil genius comes up with, will withstand far more than a sane person would subject it to.

How about a YouTube first, of batoning through a concrete block, with a folding knife?

I don't know if it will be a YouTube first, but yeah, we're definitely going to put it through a concrete block. That's just a given. I plan to stick it in a tree and stand on it. Sideways.

And it won't be thick and overbuilt. It'll just be like a regular field knife, only it folds.
