Bradley Air- Pics!
Just got it today. It's, as expected, lightweight to say the least! It has dual skeletonized Ti liners, a floating stop pin, stand-off style backspacers, a full flat ground CPM-M4 blade, and silver twill scales. Like the full sized Bradley folder, it has proud liners.
The overall build quality is superb. The action is smooth and light, lockup solid as a rock. It could be a little thinner across the handle if I'm going to pick at something, but it feels good in the hand. I was surprised to find that I can get a four finger grip on the handle, I was expecting it to be a three finger length.
All in all it's really great!

Good-looking knife. One thing I'm really curious about: if you use the forward cut-out to release the lock, is your thumb close enough to the pivot that you could allow the knife to close until the tang contacted your thumb (like how you can let a knife with 50/50 choil close on your index finger), or would you get cut?

Hi Roger,
Thanx much for the pics. Gayle Bradley is an exceptional designer / maker. We tried to do his design justice. A fine gent's folder. Hope you enjoy the piece.
Sorry about the "no pouch", Ken. We thought to begin the design this way. If the demand is large for a pouch, we can add one later, but it does raise the price?
