Jim,

Nice looking knife. How much trouble was it to get the G10 and Ti the join smoothly?

Why the steel liners on a Ti body folder?

 

[Dravur]

No,

That actually was the exact knife my Grandfather carried.

How weird!

 

[Piraticalbob]

Handsome knife!

It is G10 on SS liners, no TI except for the pocket clip.


and Thank you Gentlemen.

We are getting there my friend. Slowly, I figure I will be 98 before I can get to Jims level.

Micheal Walker's Liner lock.

Dang, but that is a fine looking knife!

I'm still trying to find time to make a few here and there. Then I see something like this and think "Why bother, I can't do that"

Seriously though, very nice work. Thank you for sharing.
