I like to mix the new with the old so making a very traditional folder pattern with new materials. The blades and spring are D2 and the handles are titanium. The tricky bit was getting the pull of both blades about the same.The small blade has a tendency to be too heavy while the large blade is fine.

I made the joint sunk to be more comfortable to carry and not wear out pockets. It is surprising light and strong.









 
Very nice, impressive work. I like the fact that the main blade has max length, not easy on single spring knives.

Great work, I've often wondered how Titanium would work as covers or as liners on a slipjoint as demonstrated from by Enrique Pena with his interpretation of the LC. Would love to see just a touch of character, possibly more rounded contouring of the covers instead of a straight 90 cover but still looks amazing.

As long as modern interpretations of slipjoints don't include pocket clips, opening holes, framelocks or flippers they are A+ in my book
 
Great concept executed well. Sunken joints, blade shapes and materials blend together making an appealing and seemingly useful piece of cutlery.
I'd like to see other traditional patterns made with modern materials. Well done and thanks for showing your work here.
 
That looks simply marvelous. Smooth lines. Classic with a modern flair. I love it, great work :thumbup:
 
Beautiful! Love the sunk joints and the blade combination. What is the closed length?

And BTW, it's pretty similar to our traditional forum knife coming soon, a serpentine double ended jack.
 
This knife looks great love the blade combination makes you want to cut something. You have definitely come up with a design that is something special. Great work!
 
Wow, that is outstanding! What a wonderful, simple knife, with quality materials. I too, would like to know what the measurements are.

I love it. It looks very clean and neat. Excellent blade selection, slim, ergonomics appear to be very good by looking at it. I bet it's a dream to have in the pocket with the titanium covers. Thanks for showing us this beautiful creation! :thumbup::thumbup:
 
Very nice work. Thanks for sharing. Been wondering about Ti on a slippy for a bit now. Looks just great!
