This is Part Five, the final part in my series on making a titanium framelock flipper folding knife. In this part we bend the
lock bar and cut the lock face. The frames are contoured and softened all over. Then final assembly and
tuning with discussions on how to fix problems and different methods to put finishes on them. Included
final finished knives as well.
