Hello all, hope that you are doing fine.
Just returned from Steve D'Lack's New Jersey Show, had a ball!
When I returned, this amazing Tore Fogarizzu 3 Bladed Folder was waiting for me.
If you push the front right bolster,the blade opens like a California opener,the left blade, the same way. They lock open and closed incidentally.
If you want the center blade opened, you must also open one of the outer blades. Grasp the Gold dots and a slight tug. The lock for the middle blade is in Gold on the spine.
Workmanship on this complex piece of machinery is superlative.
Thanks so much my good friend Tore..you really have outdone yourself.
Bakelite with Gold inlays.

enjoy
Dave

Dave, that is one incredible folder. I absolutely love his work, it's awesome. If I did folders, I would probably wade in deep with his work, I love it that much.

Best,

Bob
 
Really, really, well-made and cool. I love these unusual variations on a theme.

Tore, this is wonderful! Dave, congrats!

Why is this unfamiliar: What's a California opener?

Sorry for the crappy pics, will get some good ones done soon.
Cali opener is one that opens partially with a push of a button, Walker,Osborne and others make them

Glad you like Tore's piece, I have at least three more coming soon so hold onto your hats, he told me that they were all better than this one!!!

Thanks Dave,

But why only "cool"? This is Outstanding! Sensational! Exceptional...
I can go on and on...

Adding the above after Tore Fogarizzu's name works for me too...

All the best,
