Model: 4" Denali


A few months ago I started a WIP thread on a folder I was building for Mr. Grahn. I apologize for abandoning that project. Far to time consuming, time that I just did not have. I still managed to complete the knife. This is a debt that I will be glad to have paid.

Frame: .070 6AL4V titanium anodized steel blue

Bolsters: Chad Nichols explosion damascus, 1095 and pure nickel, Heat blued
Back Bar: file worked saw blade steel, Heat blued to a burgandy color
Pocket clip: Chad Nichols Moku-Ti damascus

Thumb stud is 416 SS inlaid with ivory, knife is fileworked throughout.

Concealed lockbar and pivot
