Friction folders

[Sparky415]

After Nikos and Trey's post I was looking for some pictures of friction folders that I have posted before and a lot of the pictures are missing, so I thought I should make a thread showing how easy they are to make or modify

This was using a Svord blade and svord pivot

There so cool tony, i really should try and make one, i bet the hultafors GK would make a great blade for a friction folder, although i would need a better grinder and not sure what i would use to drill the hole as i dont think my old drill would cut it

I love the bottle opener one.  Great work and craftsmanship!

Thanks Guys
Drilling the holes is very hard so recycle some old knives and hopefully there are some useable holes 
Then you only a dremel and belt sander
