Thats beautiful, thanks for showing. If its yours enjoy the hell out of it!

 

[Kevin Jones]

Not my cup of tea, but a spectacular work of functional art just the same.

Extreme in all manner of ways. Extremely detailed, extremely beautiful, extremely collectible and, of course, extremely $$!! If you got this one, Mr F, then you got quite the special piece!

Best,

Bob

Good job, Dan....you set the bar very high on this one, and of course, it is truly exceptional. May you enjoy it for many years to come.

You are a member of an extremely elite club with this purchase, perhaps one of the most sought after folding knives in modern history.

Best Regards,

STeven Garsson

EXTRAORDINARY design and craftsmanship. Must be even more impressive to hold it!

This knife has grown on me since Dan sent me his own clear draft images. Funny how Francesco's work gives it a bit more appeal.

It's all about texture, startling shapes, endless curves, and incredibly precise engineering prowess. I love any knife with a fuller. Hat's off to this one.

(Hint: If you open Dan's photo into a new window it's HI-RES detail!)

Thank you for posting!

Dan, I know from talking to you how much you love this piece. The more I study it the more appealing it becomes. I think the zipper is amazing, especially the fact it is fully polished Ti. Certainly a knife by any standard and an amazing art piece, too. I really like the inlay in the pivot, just intrigued by Michael Walkers visions.

hey I gotta ask; the platinum, it that the stuff that's squished into the geometric cutouts in the handle?
