Just rec. the above knife in the mail. Again won it on an ebay auction for cheap nib. There are still nice bargains to be had out there and this is hands down one of the finest I have had in quite sometime. I have had this knife for all of a half hour in my hands and have to say, the Italians are making some folders that imho rival any prod. folder I have yet own for liner lock construction.

Blade is 4.25" long, semi drop/spear point for lack of a better term. Nice thick g10, nice thick titanium frame, nice and thick S30V steel and impeccable construction. Brass washers too. Knife is big but not as fat as my ZT200, it is lighter in weight and manufactured like I said with great attention to detail. Holy crap I am totally impressed. Opens smooth, locks up solidly and I can't belive this knife was less than a hundred bucks! I'll post pics of it later. Just blown away by the quality is all.

Here is a quick pic for size comparison of the ZT200 and the Harsey. ZT is thicker and heavier, Harsey is bigger length wise and lighter weight wise. Both have pretty much the same thickness of liner locks/titanium frames, it just appears the G10 is thicker on the ZT and the pivot but am not positive on that aspect as I haven't taken them apart. The Harsey has big torx screws in the pivot area. Both are very nice but the Harsey carries much easier. Keepem sharp :thumbup:

PS I know I said I wanted to go with all frame lock construction on my folder collection but I have to say that the last 3 knives I have bought that have had liner locking construction has rivaled just about any frame lock folder I have owned. Just my opinion so take it for what it is worth.
