How to Build A Scale Release Automatic

I decided to put this DVD together because of the lack of information that is available in the area of building automatic knives.

The DVD covers:

* The principal behind designing your own scale release auto

* The parts and tools used for making the knife

* The methods used to make and fit up all of the knife’s parts

* And how to assemble the working knife

Building a scale release auto is an advanced level knifemaking project. It helps to have some experience in building folding knives prior to starting this project. If you have made a lock-back folder, then you are well on your way to building a scale release auto.

Because of the advanced nature of this project,

the DVD does not cover:

* How to grind the bevels and edge on

the blade

* How to heat-treat the blade, lock-bar,

and back

* And How to clean up the bolsters

and scales

If you need help with these previous steps,

there are many good “how to” books and DVDs

available that cover basic knifemaking

techniques. There are also many informative
