Friction Folder - san mai
Friction Folders
This unique take on pocket knives represent the oldest tech dating back thousands of years. The simple design enables smooth one handed opening and closing while ensuring a secure position open or closed all with one of our favorite physical forces, friction!
My take on this timeless classic features a more modern profile and aesthetics with all the benefits of contemporary craft like high performance blade steels accentuated by the same painstaking attention to detail that is the hallmark of handmade, custom artisan work since time immemorial.
This pieces features some truly unique materials (that Af. Blackwood burl is not something you’ll see everyday), which highlight the stunning profile.
It is a joy to hold and behold.
Specs:
7 1/4” overall length
3 1/8” hollow ground blade in stainless san mai (vg10 core)
4 1/8” handle sculpted in African Blackwood burl with vintage butterscotch paper micarta pivot collars, liners and back-spacer!
All titanium hardware with a swirl machined pivot.
Leather slip sheath included
