Folding knife in the works...

[Leon County Slayer]

Still very much in the works so I thought I'd share some pics prior to the completed piece. This one will liner lock folder with stainless bearings for the action. Handle is shaped from blue mammoth ivory tusk that will go over titanium liners. The blade is swedish stainless steel damascus. Bolsters were engraved by a new engrave out of North Carolina. I told him to run with it and he's worked in 24kt gold leaves throughout - should be receiving them tomorrow to begin finish work. Still need to jewel the liners and anodize a bronze color. Going to plan for gold screws to top it off but have to wait and see how that looks!

Thanks! Wrapped it up last night with the exception of some fine tuning. Almost there but you get the general idea. Anodized the liners and pivot a bronze/gold color to try to tie it all in together along with gold screws.
