I thought the titanium junkies over here at CPF would dig this. It's a Victorinox Deluxe Tinker that I made 6AL-4V titanium liners and scales for. There are 32 hand turned phosphor bronze washers .005" thick that keep the tools from riding on the liners and the main blade is a pre-'07 before Vic started making them .015" thinner and did away with the crossbow stamp. All of the tools have been bored and honed out to .125 pivot holes and the hollow pins are 3AL-2.5V thick walled titanium capillary tubing which is flared into countersunk holes in the scales with special dies that I also had to make. Everything opens up and snaps closed just as easy as any SAK.
And the money shot. Every bit is polished inside and out.
