Warhead Framelocks
the Warhead Framelock was the 1st framelock i built,when i 1st started making folders.
yes,some people correctly call the framelock the Reeve Integral Lock [like the liner lock is the Walker Lock],but that's a mouthful,and knifemakers know what's what [or should anyway].but i digress.
this batch was interesting,a few 1sts for me,machinined scales and locks,multiple grinds on this shape blade [something i was messing with since i made the "D'Urban Shark" back in 03].
turned out ok i think.
these are all basically the same,except for cosmetics,and a 6mm blade on 1.the rest are 5mm thick Bohler N690.
4mm thick (.157in) 6AL4V Titanium "lock liners" , 250mm (9.84in) open , 142mm (5.59in) closed , 108mm (4.25in) blade.
all the pocket clips and spacers are Ti,except 1 [i used Carbon Fibre on that 1] and all thumbdisks are Ti,except 1 [client wanted a 40 S&W casehead]

i'm calling this finish "peeling paint" :-}
blades are "Greyscale" [Blackwash was taken,and my finish is grey :-}]
this knife has a 6mm Bohler N690 blade.
thanks for looking
