11 cm long, 1 cm thick.19,5 cm long open, 7,5 cm sharp
3mm thick blade 115w8, oil hardened, 200°c tempered (2*30mn). Ta6V4 handle, O1 spring tempered to 340°c. Black G10 scale.

It's a slip joint on ball bearing. The blade is not perfectly centered closed because i'm a dumb and used a used counterbore mill....The bearing race track is not perfectly square to the flat part of the liner.
That spring is a bit too soft, but that is perfectly functional, i have only to keep a bit more steel at the flex point and i will have the spring strength i want
. I flattened a bit too much too the spring, i have a bit of light between ti and spring (before to have flattened there was a bit of friction of the spring on ti....)
The filework is awfull, i reworked a lot the spring and the top of the blade during the various stage and have eaten the filework. I re fileworked after the Heat Treatment, but that is a bit less easy
Sinon le guillochage est affreux, mais j'ai tellement retouché le ressort aprés TT que j'ai fini par le bouffer et j'ai du le "refaire" sauvagement
