Thanks George. You are right about folders being a challenge - I still have the first one I made and I sometimes look at it and I just have to smile. I am self trained, so it was a lot of trial and error, and I was so proud of it when I finally figured it out. And I still am, but when I compare...

Thank you gentlemen :D I have been doing quite a lot of Friction Folders, mainly for the UK and European markets, and did not think they would be that popular in the US, but, while they are certainly not as popular as for instance slip joints and liner locks, they seem to be gaining a following...

Thank you Laurence, I appreciate the kind words :)

Then centurion was an officer in the Roman army, and in charge of 100 men. It was also a British battle tank, built in 1945, it became one of the most widely used battle tanks in history. Both us and the Israeli's have done several modifications and upgrades to the initial design, specifically...

If you notice a Scagel and Randall influence, you'd be correct ;) A selection of stick tang knives, made in the recent past: First up is a bird and trout, from 1/6th N690, stag handle: Next is a father and son set - a hunter and matching B&T: A dagger with wild olive handle: Next one up I...

A few "micro" Friction Folders I call this design the "San" - after one of the indigenous Bushman tribes here in South Africa. This is the "micro" version - sporting a 2" blade and an open OAL of about 5" - so still a usable size but quite small. Nice size for a watch pocket or keyring. I also...

I have only recently become more active on KD after being a member for quite a while, so I thought to show some of my work. The first lot up are based on a Joseph Rodgers knife I inherited from my grandfather. It has been honed to the point where the blade tip sits well above the scales, but I...

Beautiful knife Robert - every aspect just works together and compliments the others - I think you can be really proud of how that one came out. Mr Robinson, you have no idea how I wish I was close enough to visit :D Like a lot of other people I have one of your books in my little knife book...

Lee, I just love these. Been watching them since you started the design and I think they are great - really nice design, beautifully built with fantastic attention to detail. I hope they do really well for you - they deserve to.

Thank you gentlemen :D I love living where I do - it has it's challenges in terms of delivery of materials etc, but it is a small price to pay for the clean air, no drugs, no crime, great people - and the kids being able to grow up as kids still. I will take some time over the weekend and post...

Hi Everyone, I am from South Africa and I live in the Great Karoo region of the Eastern Cape on a small farm. I have been a member here for a good while, but not very active, mainly due to time constraints - there are so many forums out there it gets a little confusing sometimes, so I have...

I have - in fact, I have put the detent in for open, half stop and closed positions - and although it is a lot more work than a standard friction folder, it works well. If I am not mistaken Boker also makes a model where they use the three detent system. And CRKT makes another variation that...
