Description

Sungrazer comets pass extremely close to the sun. Small sungrazers often completely evaporate but occasionally a larger one survives it’s risky close encounter to loop back out into the outer reaches of the solar system.
Until now, all my folding knives all relied on the spring in a slip-joint mechanism to hold the blade in an open and shut position; I like the continually dynamic feel of the spring working against the blade.
In summer 2009, I was challenged to make one of my little ‘Cargo’ folders into a liner locking knife without sacrificing the sensation of the slip joint mechanism.
