/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Has anyone here made their own folding knife of any kind? I'm gathering supplies to make a 4", 2-blade, folding, pocket knife and researching various methods. I plan on using slipjoint locking with a single spring and making it canoe style. It will be a utility knife and woodcarving knife. The blade types will be Sloyd and Sheep's Foot using carbon steel. Hinge pins will be stainless steel while scale pins will be brass.

I'm waffling on having an easily sharpened saw as a 3rd blade.

I won't be doing this project for some time, due to time spent on more important projects taking precedent. For me this looks like a somewhat complicated project, due to tolerances, and any tips would be appreciated.
