Ah, yes! Perfection is attainable only in the hands of a great Master!

I'll bet that you can also walk upon the delicate rice paper and leave no footprint.

"Usually" was the operable word in my previous statement.

Your work speaks volumes. No words are necessary!

Hey Ron you hit a nerve on this comment!! I've always collected lockbacks but was always a secret admirer of the thumbstud opener! I found that by workin the geometry of the lockback over I was able to to achieve an effortless one handed open  and still have a positive lockup. I've had many of my my customers let me know that they've never had one this easy to open in a linerlock!!! But you know what they say the devil's in the details!!!

To answer your question: Very few! That's one of the main reason I am not a fan of Chris Reeve's Sebenza's. I hate thumb studs! Usually. Most of my tactical folders are Spyderco's for that very reason.

Nice looking filework on this guy!
