bnewberry Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Here is my first friction folder. Forged blade from file, heat treated and tempered in the forge as well. Convex grind and a bottle opener built in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bnewberry Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 Thanks for the kind comments. I realize now I should have posted this in the folding knife section. Sorry about that! This was my first attempt at a folder. I've done two fixed blade previously. The folder was more challenging! The blade was my first forge attempt. It was pretty ugly but the grinder got rid of most of the evidence. I'm pretty happy with the results. I'll try a slip joint sometime in the future.
