Thanks, gents! Now I gotta pee.

OK, let me start by saying this is a design that I doubt will ever be built. One of the members on my Facebook group (Aritistic Switchblade Knives) asked me about creating an automatic version of this strange sickle-shaped knife. Normally I can finish a design in maybe 12 hours. I have five times (o...

These are great knives, even moreso when customized. The green one is by Straydog and the engraved one is by Bill DeShivs. They are both gems in my collection and NFS.

He even stole the alias "autoknife".

Whipper, it's etched. I designed it in CAD, Duke had a contact. Seems like $50 for 20 copies, each good for dozens of etches.

Thom, thanks, idea stolen from RPK's.

To tell the truth, Sam, I rarely post on the forums any more since my posts tend to be ignored. (21 views and 2 comments) If it isn't a Latama or Coricama, it don't count.

still lots of customs out there, typically I design 13's, but I can do as large as you like

I just set up email groups for the distribution of Switchblades A-Z and sent everyone an email. If you didn't get anything from me and want to be on the distribution, email me at oldandfat@cox.net. If you are new to this document and want it, same thing: email me.

Hero Worship,Thom?

My partner, Duke, aka Knifemaker44, has become intrigued with Kris blades and the way I develop them mathematically. I created a bunch of sample designs for him in various lengths, widths, number of humps, length of humps, height of humps, base profiles, etc. He is exploring how to make a Kris blade...
