The " Round house" Another great design by none other than our own Lorien Arnold. This one is heading to its new home the end of this week. CPM 154 Cm Blade 3-1/8"Long . Zirc Bolsters / Titanium liners and hardware. Ceramic bearings and detent.





Thanks Lorien

WOW :eek: Absolutely stellar design and implementation of it :thumbup: I'm hoping Daniel picked up one of these ;) Your treatment of Zirc. is just spectacular.
 
Beautiful!

very nice. this design will benefit greatly from heaving contouring of the handles, a curved bolster and a coke bottle profiled handle. good job :thumbup:
 
Love those lines.....:cool:

Another great job, Gentlemen.....need to add one of those to the list. :)

stellar work, Bing :)
 
for me, that is almost absolutely perfect shape... love it. I assume there will be more of these for sale in the future and we can expect to have a chance at one???
 
But....but that's not an Icarus?! :confused:

Just kidding. :) It's hard to imagine a folding knife could get much better than that.
 
Thanks everyone for the comments. With the overwhelming response there will definitely be more of these in the future. :thumbup:


Thanks again to Lorien for allowing me to take on his designs.

Lorien & Bing,

What a pleasure to meet you both at the Blade Show this year, you made me feel as if we have been long time friends. Thank you both!

Your Collaboration is striking in every detail, would love to check it out!

Bing and I have 3 patterns that have seen light of day, (thanks Bing!!!).

The first was the Bingalor, which I designed specifically for Bing based on his approach to design. You could say that it leaned on his Chiron pattern for inspiration.

The second was the Icarus, which I designed on my own in an attempt to incorporate as many contemporary design elements as I could without getting ridiculous. Bing named that one.

The third was the Roundhouse, which had initially been a project intended to be seen through by John W. Smith, whose current reality took him out of the picture. Fortunately, Bing dug it enough to see it through and I'm glad he did since I think of it as one of my best patterns so far.

All three prototypes are pictured below in the sequence that they were described in.



All three knives see regular use, and the feedback I get from using them is critical for the development and refinement of their patterns, and also to inform future design development. Speaking of which, expect to see a new Bing/Loriendesign folder in a knife forum near you ;)
 
Real fine work there, Bing.

Nice lines, Lorien!

Best Regards,

STeven Garsson
