Almost finished...ahhhhh! I went over to the Wilfred Works this morning on a mission to complete work on my first folding knife.
There has been a lot of work since now; drilling holes in liners, adjusting the walk and talk so the spring is level with the liners in all three positions, cutting out and shaping the liners, cutting out and shaping the handle material, gluing the handles material and drilling final holes, etc., etc.,.
Today I pinned the handles to liners and put the knife together and have it sanded to 800 grit.
I think the knife is coming together real well. I attribute that directly to using the same hammer that Tony has used to put together every knife he ever made(seen in the last picture).
