What thickness of Titanium?

[Stew]

Chaps,

Can i ask what is the suitable range of thicknesses of Titanium to use for a liner lock and also the same for a frame lock?

Thanks!

For a liner lock i use between 1.5 and 2mm. For a frame lock i use between 2mm and 4mm

I prefer .040" for my liner locks but they tend to be gentlemens knives not rugged EDC types.

I use .040" for "gents" sized folders, .050-.062" for most others (larger), and for framelocks .100-.130"

Thanks guys. I now have to go convert your imperial measurements into metric! I can do a certain amount in my head but not those ones!

I can help a bit....I've had enough international students that I have become slightly familiar...

.040" = 1.016mm

.050'-.062'= 1.27mm-1.57mm

.100"-.130"= 2.54mm-3.30mm
