Preferably made with USA domestic materials but that can be challenging. The liner lock is suitable for my uses and these are my creations.
U.S. mil spec 6-4 Ti
Japan Hitachi ATS-34 blade steel
Devin Thomas, NV: mokume or damascus. I don't know where Devin sourced the brass, copper or nickel as well as the 440-C/AEB-L, 1095 or other steel components but likely USA. Tom Ferry Timascus.
Mammoth Ivory could be Alaska or Russia. Stone is from Wyoming. US made carbon fiber with what I suspect may be Toray carbon fiber weave.
Screws are product of either Canada or S. Korea.
Taps used were Brubaker, USA
Bandsaw blade to cut all this stuff up was Lenox USA.
Heat treat from Pacific Heat Treat in Sunnyvale, CA.
Then my CA based under min wage labor. LOL.
If I have to fly I pack a PRC made Gerber or similar knife that is an acceptable loss if confiscated/stolen.
