My folding knives come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. I make gentleman-, hunter-, utility-, and tactical-style folders. They range from "using" models to fully file-worked collector pieces. The handle and blade materials also vary widely. Liners are usually made from titanium and can be anodized if desired. Bolsters are 416 stainless steel, Damascus, or Mosaic Damascus. I prefer natural handle materials such as ivory, horn, and wood, but I can use almost anything. Most of my blades are forged 52100, pattern-welded Damascus, or Mosaic Damascus. My folders are liner locks because I feel they have a stronger design. I like their all-screw construction and the fact that they can be totally disassembled for maintenance.
