Members DCKNIVES Posted March 9, 2008 Members Report Posted March 9, 2008 New sheath for one of my new friction folders. Laced and inlayed in Eastern Diamondback. Hope you like it. Dave Quote
Members Warren Posted March 9, 2008 Members Report Posted March 9, 2008 Well even if I didn't like the sheath (which I do!) I love the knife! That is so cool! What did you make the handle out of? I've never seen a flipper like that either. Is that something you came up with? The whole thing looks great and I would be very happy to carry it! Warren Quote
Members rsg3 Posted March 9, 2008 Members Report Posted March 9, 2008 Thats pretty awesome, the sheath and the knife. Quote
Members DCKNIVES Posted March 9, 2008 Author Members Report Posted March 9, 2008 Thanks. Warren, the handle is Mexican Bocote and the bolsters are Water Buffalo horn.The friction folder style has been around for hundreds of years. This style is basically non-locking except for your thumb and the friction part is how tight the pivot is.With all the fancy locking folders these days you don't see many friction folders but I have always liked making them and they sell well.I do more out of deer antler which is somewhat more traditional.Dave like this Quote
