Re:

I think same as you for titanium legs.
Very similar to your ? Litespeed prototype fork.
Dropouts and welds looks like to first Litespeed frames, we can see on this photo :

The design of mine has never been seen ...

Re:

Thanks for a photos Adriano.
Undoubtedly the bottom of my fork was made by the Linskey family (Litespeed).
It is the pieces of a fork cut and / or broken.

Re:

I must admit that I wanted to test a little if you were going to find. Adri.75 has found the bottom, congratulations to him.

In fact I made the fork with a Kona P2 and a Litespeed first gen.
You will see more on the post of my Newsboy there:
