Hello,

just sharing a recent finished prototype wharnie backlock. No CNC included. :)

Blade is made from heat treated ATI425 Titanium. All other metal parts (spring, hammer, spacer, liners, screws, pivot barrels) are 6AL4V Titanium except for the washers and bushings.
Handles scales is stab. redwood burl.

This is also my very first try ever at a pocket clip.

Cutting edge is 95 mm / 3.75" long and the blade is 2,85 mm / 0.112" thick.
OAL is 220 mm / 8.66"
Weight is 81 gr. / 2.86 oz.

Thanks for watching!

Gorgeous! I've been hoping we'd see more of your work!
 
This is awesome! Love that you made your first dive into pocket clips ambidextrous! Very cool…
 
I love how shapely this knife is and it follows one of my personal rules, no sharp edges when closed

Thanks all!

Since a backlock is ambidextrous the Clip had to be ambidextrous as well or no clip at all :D
