I received this last week and absolutely love this knife.

3 1/4 (3inch cutting edge) Damascus blade by Audra. 7 1/2 OAL. Moose antler scales. Ti backspacer and Ti clip. Mike also made an extra set of screws should i want to go clipless. Mike did this on his own as I never thought of it. Excellent Service!!!

Audra and Mike signed the inside of the Ti backspacer and dated it.

Opening action is smooth and the lock up is solid. Edge is very sharp and the grind is polished. Balance point seems to be right at the forefinger position (between the pivot and the front of the scale.

I also asked Audra to have Elise of Yo Yo Leather make a horizontal carry sheath for this knife.

This is an amazing set up.





 
It is interesting to note how Mike and Audra have influenced each other in their knifemaking style.

This is a very nice knife, indeed.
 
Very nice folder. And by a female knifemaker no less! (There should be more of those!:D)
 
I'm a huge Draper fan.... (may I share?)
She made me this one upon request with Koa scales. I wanted that as a tribute to the Hawaiian connection and Ken Onion's influence on this design. Turned out really nice.
