WOW; I just love seeing the customs you and a few others make. Can't imagine the skill you guys have to develop.

Hi from Australia
I was wondering what you use for a lockback spring on your switchblades.
I have made 5 lockback switchblades and I use a small coil spring at the end of the lock bar.
Do you use the main spring for the lockbar.

Nathan; unfortunately, out friend Bird only stops by every few months but you can see some of his work in progress here:

You should be able to get an idea of how the lockback is set up from the pictures.

Beautiful stilettos. I like all three.
I would like to see a picture of the right. Would be nice if they could make one?
