It's been nearly two months since I offered my first knife for sale on Bladeforums and a few days after posting that knife I began the process of moving to another city (Kamloops, British Columbia, my hometown). I had mentioned in that initial posting that I had a few Persians I was working on but due to the move, I did not post as I was unable to finish them at that time.
In any case, here I am offering for sale a knife I had planned to list nearly two months ago. It should suffice to say the design of this knife and handle insure an absolutely positive locked in grip in all positions, particularly forward and reverse grips. Also, the mother of pearl has proven to be very difficult to photograph but is stunning in person (as it should be) and really stands out being highly polished and reflective next to the matte/satin finished G10. The MOP inlay is also dovetailed in place to provide durability as this knife is still designed as a user.
