Seeking the best ‘sounding’ titanium framelocks

[Hellasharp]

My Lionsteel TRE, while not the biggest framelock, has the best sound and feel factor when opened.

i have the ti-Rok and it’s my least favorite action and sound though favorite to marvel at the fit finish and engineering.

I’m thinking the type of sound and action I’m looking for has to do with the amount of inner milling on the backside of the scales to create some reverberation. My ROk is a chonker of a ti-integral so it deadens any potential sound.

I saw the video you linked in the other thread. It appears the sound you're looking for is not what I was thinking. You should definitely check out, and I think it was mentioned earlier here, Herman knives. They're liner lock but definitely have a "sing" when you open them.

Sometimes the music is all it takes... maybe someday there will be a greatest hits of 70s porn soundtrack album made.

The key is in the guitar wah pedal.

I do like the satifying "Clack" when I put my CPK UF in it's MashedCat sheath

Same for me with this Boltoron sheath and knife, a David Mary creation. It has a "thunk" when drawing or resheathing.
The leather belt adapter is a Gary Graley addition.

I thought of this thread while taking my EDC picture today. I was bent over and closed this knife closer to my face than usual. I enjoyed the audible "ting" of the button lock.

Sure, it's not a titanium frame lock but the current wave of button locks might be worth exploring...

I 100% understand that. Slowly moving away from flipper-only myself

While I could never imagine buying a knife that wasnt to be used as a tool, and sure as hell wouldnt buy a tool based on sound. I do I get the sound thing as I kinda enjoy it from a number of tools I own as it is the sound of being fully functional and ready to use.
I really enjoy the sound of a G19 stripping a round and slamming it home, weapon hot! I also enjoy the sound of my always present Mnandi locking with that diminutive little click like its mimicking its bigger siblings and i know that its a very capable little knife.

If I pick my favotite knife sounds it would be the main blade on a Buck 307, its a combo of a thump and a thawk…And the Zaan, almost silent but you feel tghe sound more then you hear it.

Herman knives, Winterblade, & Sandrin make the coolest sounds. None are frame locks though lol.

Not necessarily in that order, but the Chaves really hits fairly hard.

What is that third knife ? That's a sweet looking blade, I really like it!

That is a Todd Begg Bodega, his Steelcraft line, made by Reate.
