Todd Begg friction folder WIP

Closed position

Open position, just so you guys know this is not a flipper that is a guard that adds stability to the blade staying in place.

more to come. Wait until you see the inlays, All new material from Chuck Bybee at Alpha and man are you guys going to be blown away.

that is some good stuff right there!

Interesting take on the friction folder idea. It would be nice to see a blade fully open in the handle - will the forefinger sit in the blade choil?

Hey Stew good question and the answer is no. The blade is designed so that your finger will sit behind the choil which looks like a flipper but is actually a guard to create more security to keep the blade from moving. Hope this is helpful.

First inlays going in, silver twill in carbon fiber frame.

Textured titanium inlayed in titanium frame. This is the latest texturetech Jon has been working on at Alpha these guys are the only guys in the world who make this material. Tom Ferry was the inventor but has passed the torch to Alpha for Jon to do his thing.

 

[Nephilim Killer]

Texture tech bronze inlays with titanium frame. This is the debut of this material.

There's one flavor for anybody right there ^^^. I love the bronze texture. It brings a bit of old flavor of an old design, yet streaking into the future with materials and machining.

And for me, I dislike silver twill with an unexplainable reflex. It's like coffee with flavoring: gag. Not just here. ANYONE with this allergic material. HA!

You'll sell them out, I know. LOL!

Thanks for the update.
