Been making a few knives recently, thought I'd share this one, my first friction folder. It's not perfect but it has rustic character!

 

It's a uk legal carry, scales are padauk, left over from a fretboard destined for a cigar box guitar. The bolts were found in the garage, the file for the blade was donated by my dad, the tip of it had chipped and the handle had broken off. Even the fuel used to anneal and harden was from an old pallet from work. I based the design on the svord peasant, the letters didn't work very well but the knife works great. Hardened to roughly 60 on the rockwell scale, you can just make out the dark bronze tempering colour
