Thanks for showing, Andrew.
May I offer some critique?
I don't know how much experience you have, so I'm going to offer suggestions like I would to a beginner.
1. It appears to me you haven't left extra stock at the kick. You may have trouble setting the blade closed position. Your design warns you to do that very thing. And my WIP.
2. I would never profile anything except the blades and inside of the springs until all the mating parts are fitted. If you rely on the patterns for the hole locations the parts probably won't fit together properly. You simply can't work accurately enough.
If you go back thru my recent WIP, you'll see that none of the parts are profiled until after the first assembly with all 3 pins in place.
I hope this doesn't upset you. We all learn from constructive criticism. Me too.
