This is a low-cost mass production knife, assembly and finished by hand. All I'm implying is, it's possible to make one by using CAM. I'm not saying that CAM can do everything, either. As Tim had mentioned, it has it's limitations.

I love custom knives too.
Tim, do not worry. Craftsmen like yourself are always in demand. The work done by skilled craftmen cannot be matched by machines, the human element are alway required (even in the mcusta case).

Rick, it's not an auto. It's a liner-lock folder. For more info...
