Ti LUM folder #521

[Edd Harbin]

Just have a few questions . One , how many were made ? And two , what should I use to clean the Ti handles ? I've never had a knife with Ti on it so I don't want to use the wrong cleaner .

I cna help with the cleaning question. Anything that will clean steel will clean Ti safely. I use soap and hot water or a solvent like rubbing alcohol or acetone. Ti is even more resistent to acids than stainless steel. We use a dilute nitric acid solution to clean the Ti burner head of our Atomic Absorbtion instrument at work, and there is no effect on the Ti. I wouldn't recommend using an acid on your knife scales of course. I wouldn't use anything too abrasive because the Ti is softer than the blade steel; I've scratched my AFCK's ATS-34 blade with those green Scotch pads.

First run -- 1,000 numbered pieces. Subsequent Lum ti's had ti liners but this beautiful piece had been discontinued to pave way for the G-10 tac-Lum and Satin finished version...
