Balisong #2: 5160, cow bone and nickel silver

[Ruben Calo]

3 3/8" blade (2 3/4" edge) in diferentially heat treated handrubbed 5160 - 5/32" thickness. 7 7/8" opened, 4 1/2" closed.
Stainless steel stopping pins and (fileworked) liners. Cross shaped engraved stainless steel pins.
Dovetailed polished cow bone scales with engraved nickel silver bolsters. Nickel silver latch.

As always, 100% hand made with the tools you see on my workshop.

Smooth action and well balanced for flipping (steel and nickel silver get a nice weight)

Excellent work. I like it very much. The cow bone in surprisingly good looking. Question. What type of pivots? I have done a couple butterflies and think they are interesting as well as a good designed folder.
