Front-opener 'Tuxedo' folder

[J. Doyle]

Here is the latest folder I finished. It is a light and slim 'gentleman's' folder. Easy one handed opening with the front opening tab, but it is not a tactical flipper.

'Tuxedo' folder. One-handed, front opener, liner-lock, W2 steel blade with polished hamon, rounded and filed thumb grip/opener tab, rounded spine, filed thumb grip on tang, black g-10 dove-tailed bolsters, white g-10 scales with black dots inlay, titanium pivot and scale screws, jeweled titanium lock and liners, black g-10 backspacer with polished flutes on the outside and 'stealth' thorn-and-vine filework on the inside.

well done. I love a Tux knife.

that knife is stunning. John, you don't even need a maker's mark. I know a knife is yours as soon as I see the thumb-grip file work.

For heaven's sake, you even clocked the screws!

I know a knife is yours as soon as I see the thumb-grip file work.

And the beautifully radiused spine....

The black dots....so beautiful! Excellent job!
