Title: Friction Folder
Post by: 4est Trekker on February 29, 2012, 06:57:23 pm

Here's a new little friction folder from an American-made Nicholson file with walnut scales, hammered pins, and an acid-etched finish. It was differentially heat treated and double quenched.  It's 6" in oal when folded, has a 3.75" handle, and a 2.25" blade.  Thanks for looking!
