Very nice. Pity that thinner liner is not Ti to match the lock side...
Is it possible to make it look like the Ti liner by blasting it?

Not sure, but I doubt it. It started out shiny, and I hand-finished it to a satin/brushed level. The Ti seems to be not just matte but a different color altogether.

Thanks. :) The very tip is in focus--hard to see in a small file.

I don't. I consider that one a spare-parts kit in the form of a beater knife. :)

Thats a beautiful piece. For me it would become my most expensive Spydie after I bought both knives and combined them.
