This was my EDC folder for some months. It literally is as good as new, no scratches or other blemishes. But since it's used i am offering it a highly reduced price.
Blade is made from heat treated ATI425 Titanium. HT was done by Mecha Mecha .
HRC is in the mid 50ies. It performs similar to a simple carbon steel blade like 1084 in terms of edge holding and ease of sharpening, but with a "springy" temper and of course no rust ever and super light compared to steel.
The entire knife is 100% rust proof.

Some specs
OAL: 7.88"
Blade: 3.6", cutting edge is 3.1", .118" thick. Blade "runs" on posp. bronze washer, with bronze bushing in the blade and lockbar.
Handle: Black and blue Jute (Burlap) Micarta with G10 spacer and liner. All other metal parts (execpt for the bronze washer and bushings) are made from 6AL4V Titanium.
Weight: 2.54 oz.

$500 shipped worldwide

This are pics that i made today, this is what the actual knife looks.

That is a beautiful knife! A dream for me to own a titanium bladed knife, for sure! Now, if I just had $500 laying around… Would you consider a kidney in trade? I can’t quit coming back here to look at that thing…
 
Very nice work. The good news is that if you make a Ti Framelock with a Ti blade, you won't need a steel lock bar insert. lol
