The design is from a friend. Piw From france balisong. He wanted to see his scheme come to life 
. I worked on the project.
Niolox blade and titanium handle.
I marked and cut the blade
Band saw work
I marked and draw the handle
Band saw work.
It's cut
I make some grind with the dremel
I shaped the blade
It's begin to seem something not bad.
Some clamp and go
Not bad.
I punched
I centered the hole.
3,3mm hole
Counterbored the hole.
3,8mm hole, and reamed to 4mm
120 grit to clean
It something like that.
I draw the center.
I grind with 60 grit ceramic belt.
The grind is not so easy to do, it's the first time
It's better i begin to have the "hand".
WIth fine grit it's better.
The idea is here.
Closed
Open
Some Filework.
Bad picture.
I cooked some niolox
I worked on the spacer.
Scotch and drill.
I keep the temperature during 20mn
The ceramic kiln.
Spacer drilled to 1,7mm.
I drilled throught the handle.
Some hole.
Some hole.
Centering drill bit.

Centering drill bit
I drilled to 1,9 the 1,7mm hole.
I countersinked the handle to 90°
I cleaned a bit.
I cleaned to 240
I tappered the spacer.
I check if it's always ok
I make various thing in the same time.
Scotch brit 280
I etched
I etched the name of the designer
Poliching
The etching is ok
It's more or less clean.
240 to reduce the grind
It's more or less what i wanted to have.
Not bad.
Glass blasting
Some polishing work.
I built one more time.
I cut the spacer.
I shaped the spacer.
I have a scheme, i checked with the scheme.
