thanks, I'm glad you like my knife;)

I did not understand your question, you can explain it better?

Sorry, I was asking how you made the slot in the blade to open it with. In America we call it a nail nick.....not sure what it is called in your country.

the "nail nick" is created with a milling.
The blade is put on a cross table tilt and is milled.
