Mystery Lock

[Cubane]

The blade and spring are damasteel. The bolsters, pins and liners are stainless and the scales are mammoth ivory. I have been wanting to make one of these since I found out about them a couple of years ago. The damasteel is from winning the giveaway BossDog ran a while ago. I finally put it to good use I think.

More pics and a video of the mystery lock in action to follow.

Looks great I like the hidden trick lock. I saw your work in progress on Instagram, I enjoyed following it thanks for sharing.

I just googled mystery lock and only came back here. How does it work. Ed

There is a little moveable pin in the handle that will lock or unlock it depending on which way the knife is held. Have a look at the WIP I posted on instagram .. my username is alistairphillipsfolders on there.
