I did a trade recently for a Brian Flud Cobra knife. Here are trhe specs. from the maker: This knife pictured below has a 3 1/2 inch blade of 5/32 thick S30V steel and 6al4v Titanium handles that I have done some random pattern carving for some grip and decoration.The backspacer has some file work and the blade has been bead blasted with a very fine blast media.The total length of the knife opened is 8 3/4 inches and the closed length is 4 5/8 inches long. The blade can be opened by the nail nick in the blade or by using the ball of your thumb on the small serrations on the spine of the blade to rotate or flip the blade open. The action is nice and smooth and has a great solid lock up. The clip is hand carved out of titanium like Matt does his clips though I did this one in the shape of a Cobra and then bead blasted it.
I love this knife. As you read, it has a different method of opening. It does flip open very smoothly to. It has a bank vault like lock up, and the blade is dead center too. It is a big beefy knife. I wish that the clip had the knife sitting lower in my pocket. Sorry for the crappy pix. I am going to take some more in a few days. Thanks for looking.
