Here is my second folder and the prototype for a tactical design. I already have changes in mind for subsequent versions, but I am pleased with the initial results. Blade length is 3", overall length is 7". This one will be available at the Blade Show

Looks great! I especially like the blade design. What thickness are the ti liners?

See you soon,

Really nice. I'm sorry I won't be at the Blade show. What about a tail clip?
 
Bob,
That one is HOT!! I like the blade shape, false edge, handle shape, etc. etc

Always think of your fellow knife makers as partners in the search for the perfect blade, not as people trying to compete with you and your work!

Thanks, guys. The more I play with it the more I like the lines and the way it flows. The liners a .063 because I just happened to have some. I will use .050 most of the time. I can put the clip top or bottom, no problem. I am going to add a lanyard hole and see how a thumb disk looks for ambidextrous opening.

Wow, you've managed to take all of the clean lines on you FB's and transfer them to a folder, no easy feat. It still has your "look"
Great job

Ebbtide out.
 
I really like it! The blade shape is great! Apparently blind, I thought the handles were micarta. Was glad to learn they were titanium. Makes me wonder, given the shape of everything if making it an integral lock wouldn't be a relatively easy change.

Guess I'm hung up on that lock because of receiving 2 in the mail the past week. I like liner-locks more than most, but couldn't help wonder about the stronger lock potential.

Keep it up! Very difficult to believe it is only #2. Besides, wasn't #1 posted just last week? Hope you have a great Blade Sale!

Hi, Tom.
I was basically trapped at my table. I had 6 grand worth of my personal collection on the table that I wasn't too keen on leaving for too long. Besides trying to buy supplies, I only got to stop at tables that were right next to the main aisle as I went to the bathroom.

You were unencumbered...why didn't you stop by my table
