A couple more folders

[jkf96a]

I have been making a few slip joint pocket knives lately while I was in between batches of fixed blade stuff. Both of these are 154 CM stainless with jigged bone. Red one is small, 3" closed. The double bolstered one is bigger, 4 1/8" closed. Now it is back to the fixed blades for a while.

Nice work, Jason. Those are two great little folders. Keep them coming.

Good looked folder Jason. Love the classic lines of the top one.

I'm just now buying all of my materials for my first folder. Question: how thick do the liners have to be to go without a bolster on the pivot (for a slipjoint)?

.030" at least.

Thank you very much, Mr. Robinson. Boss has .048 available, so it looks like I'm going with that, anyway. I was wanting thinner liners but apparently this is a happy turn of events since it will give me the bolster-less option.
