    Default Linerlock Folding Knife

    This is a knife I started a while back with the guidance of Don Robinson of Brownsville TX. He has a full machine shop and it helped alot using his precision machines to make this. He showed me what to do and I did it. It rough around the edges, but I will enjoy carrying it. Thanks for looking. . I need more experience and more precision(expensive)machines to make these on a regular basis.

    There is no glue holding the knife or scales together on this knife.

    Specs:
    Blade - ATS34 - 2.75"
    Closed length 3 5/8"
    Black g10 and bocote scales

    Looking good Frank. Some day I'll try a pocket knife - and I sure hope I don't get hooked.

    I'm not a fan of the blade profile but that is a nice looking knife.
    1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
    2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

    Looking good, I can see that knife making could be addictive

    That's really nice.

    Well I understand why you said it's rough around the edges. I wouldn't want a buddy like you to carry anything but the best so you can just send it along to me and I'll get rid of it for you.

    I sure don't know where you think it's rough. I think it looks great. Isn't it terrible, though, to make something and see all the imperfections in it when everyone else is drooling? Wouldn't it be nice to see it as everyone else does? When I get done with something all I can see are the imperfections.
