I just finished this one for one of my regular customers as part of my "learning how to make my own folders" process. In case anyone's wondering, I agreed to make the reblade as Mr. Emerson doesn't offer san mai blades and because one of the requests from my customer was a no-wave blade. To keep things clear, I also engraved "Base knife: EKI Horseman. Work by AES" on the inside of one of the liners. Can't take a picture of that without disassembling the knife, but it's easily readable with the knife opened. That said, here's the knife! Customized Emerson Horseman Base Knife: E

Integral Fighter in Forged Titanium and Carbon Fiber
Ariel Salaverria replied to Ariel Salaverria's topic in Show and Tell
Thanks guys! I've got some questions on how I worked the Ti, so here it is: Grit 60, then 150, then 220 and then 400 by hand. After that, polishing paste and cloth in the bench grinder. Key to CF (IMHO) is to round it. That brings up much better looks Ariel -
