True North Knives has a few Warren Thomas rebladed Emersons. They have a titanium and carbon Fibre laminated blade. Does anyone have any experience with this type of blade? I'm concerned about long term durability/stability of the lock mechanism. I wonder how fast the titanium lock surface will wear away the carbon fibre? I do like the side the blade is ground on, especially for a right handed user.

i just looked, and there aren't any pics of the lock engagement.
i would hope there is something other than the cf for the lock to hit. the lock may not engage until the ti portion of the blade, though.
i had an old bm 970 st, ti w/ carbide edge.
not the best cutter, very toothy edge.
