Default Making A Folding Whittler
Hi Gang im half way through making a new folding knife for myself and have been taking photos of the different stages and also made templates of all the parts.
My question is....Would any of you like me to post them up so you could have a go at making one yourself?

FF,

That would be super!!! I for one would love to see photos of the process. The last one you posted was a beauty, and I've had very strong desires to make one for myself since then.

L.P.

I would like to see that too Richard,

I still can't get that air rifle out of my head, your talent as a jeweller really shines with your carvings.
