Re: FRN Police 4
That is my understanding, yes. There's a thread, or some posts, on it somewhere. From what I recall, the work hardening properties of it, (H1) came in to play.steelcity16 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:29 am

It may have been a hand made prototype. If so, it didn't have the bi-directional texture?RadioactiveSpyder wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 9:49 pmOk Sal, I have a dumb noob question for you: if I held a FRN Police 4 prototype at the OKCA show, where did the tooling for that come from? I only ask because you mentioned the tooling is still being finalized, and the one I held (albeit briefly) seemed spot on. As I said, a totally noob question...
And I’m one of those much in favor of a ZDP version! :D
Cheers, Radioactive :)
We are currently tooling up for three FRN models in Seki. FRN Police 4, Endela and Rock Jumper. I have only seen the Endela handle made from tooling.

What's the Endela?

Hi U.w.
Welcome to our forum.
Steelcity,
That is correct. As u.w. mentioned, the work hardening properties prevent flat grinding the steel, except slowly by hand.

Re: FRN Police 4
I am going out on a limb and guessing that the Endela is a knife half way between the Delica and the Endura in size?

Re: FRN Police 4
You are right. All in its time :)
Re: FRN Police 4
Sounds like an endura and a delica mix?

Re: FRN Police 4
I would like to see black scales and a good to high quality steel will do.
Re: FRN Police 4
First run is usually black FRN / VG-10. Then we go from there.
