Nice!

Will you be building this yourself or do you have a maker that will be turning this into reality?

Well funds are low currently but that doesn't stop me from designing it. I will have it made from a reliable and quality maker. It will be a titanium frame lock non-flipper. It will likely be redrawn several times, I keep moving the pivot location and that changes the entire knife design.

I know of 2 that will take a unique idea and make them a reality; Alan Davis and Elliot Williamson (Ferrum Forge).

I have a piece from Alan but I have yet to get anything from Elliot although he has a high reputation and works with some of the best materials available.

Ferrum Forge has a website and a youtube channel so you can look into Elliot but Alan is only available through Blade Forums (that I know of).

Alan is also available of Facebook, I talked to him a bit.

I have a couple makers in mind, I just can't remember their names.

I have a trade offer: my Brous SSF for a Microtech Selectfire, thoughts?
I don't think I am a fan of the Selectfire.

I have decided to try and live with my ZT 0550 & Strider SnG and not buy anymore knives for the time being. I really love both of these knives.

Very interesting site. Lots more to the custom/collectible/harduse knife world than I ever imagined. Still haven't seen anything that appeals to me as much as the Strider SnG, plain brown/green/black scale and flamed back, plain blasted blade. Now if I could just find one in stock.... anywhere.-(P
