I have been finishing up some knives for the upcoming Adelaide Knife Show on Nov 6-7.
I am really excited to show this one off as it is my first multiblade folder. I really need to get some better photos but I put together this quick edit.
It isn't perfect, the 2 overlapping blades just clear each other without rubbing I think they will get some rub marks on them eventually. I also didn't bend the sheeps foot blade fair enough into the middle which would have helped a lot with the clearance but you have to start somewhere.
I have to say thanks to Tony Bose for sending me the pattern and with some hints and tips, along with Kerry Hampton and Ken Erickson for sharing their knowledge too.
