Finished off this folder today using a new handle material we came up with. This one finished oiut really nice I thought.

What is that I see written on that blade!!!!???? ::) Bill, Bill, Bill.....did somebody sneak into your shop and plant stainless seeds? :D

Just kidding Bill....you know I'd have to give you grief over that. How thick were those Ti scales when you started out? I've tried texturing a few pieces that way and they always wind up warping so badly that I can never get then straight enough for scales. In fact I still have a set of scales that I did not long after Tom was over here.....what, two years ago or so, and they're still sitting in the same place.

By the way, in spite of all my hassling you about the SS, that if a super looking folder....you have been working hard haven't you!?

Ed that blade had been sitting in a drawer from 3 years ago. I stumbled across it and decided well since it was already made I'd use it and it turned out to be a good looking knife even if it wasn't damascus. I have ten more of the same style lying on the bench out there that are all damascus blades. I think the titanium was .050 when we started forging it.
