I have a Bob Dozier Workhorse folder with titanium handle slabs, an inlaid liner lock, and a satin finished D2 clip point blade for sale. The Workhorse features Bob's innovative Tab Stop, where the same piece of titanium acts as both the liner lock and the stop pin to give create Bob calls an "ultra strong lock". And with a blade thickness of nearly 1/4", this will be one of the toughest and beefiest folders that you will ever see.
The Workhorse also features a blade tang that is shaped in a way so that it can function as a low profile flipper. You'll definitely need a little wrist action to flip it open, but it does present an additional alternative opening method to the standard thumbstud.
I am not the first owner of the Workhorse listed here, but it does not appear to have been carried, used, or resharpened, and its original edge from Bob is very sharp. There are a few light handling marks on the handle slabs. The opening action is very smooth, the lock-up is rock solid, and the blade centering is near perfect.
