Folder Kit Supplies


I would like to start to make folders. I feel that the place to start is perhaps to assemble kit form before I try to make my own parts. Which supply house has the best kits? Does any one supply ATS34 blades in their kits?

Not a bad way to start, you'll learn what makes the folder function properly. Understanding how a folder works makes it that much easier to build one from scratch. All the major supply house sell folder kits, I would recommended Texas Knifemakers Supply, you can get there via my website and go to the links page.

Knife Kit


Try Koval's 605 kit. It is a high quality screw together kit with liner lock, ambidexterous thumb stud, ball bearing detented in lock and nylon washers. Very nice kit. Optional green/black micarta or G10 handle slabs predrilled and ready to finish, or make your own.

Folder Kits


Thanks again, I just received 2 kits from Koval. They sure look the business. I intend to finish one in Desert Ironwood & the other in Hippo Tusk.
