The object I've chosen to recreate is a pocket knife manufactured by Chris Reeve, the Sebenza. It has won multiple awards over the years as one of the most well machined folding knives currently in production. Reeve, once a die and tool maker, exerts such exact tolerances that it is not unusual to see Sebenza's for sale for over $500 CAD. In total there are nearly 20 parts, including washers, thumbstud and handle spacers. As I want to produce my own folding knives in the future alongside the fixed blade knives I currently make, this seemed like an optimal choice.
