Friction folder

Post by muskrat man »

I have been tinkering with this inbetween doing folks orders, put the final touches on it today, it's for a build off on another forum.

Specs:
Handrubbed 1/16" 1095 blde
Brass backspacer
Milled Brass liners (so's to not scratch up the blade)
Nickel silver pins
Nickel silver dovetailed bolsters
Primitive bone handles.

I also peened a nice round head on the pivot pin for easy re tightening of the blade should it ever becme loose from use.

Thanks Guys.

I wish Adam, I'm just glad I can get stuff accomplished now, still don't have good movement in my finger and still going to PT but screw it, the knives aren't going to make themselves, someone has to help them on thier way :D
