Recently picked this up. David Boye Bali-Song. 2 3/4" x 5/32" thick Dendritic Steel blade. Rosewood handles. I am told this is one of only 3 he ever made. Unusual bail/latch. Stainless steel handle frames. Etched "Boye" in script on back tang, and Bear Claw etched on front tang. I believe this is quite an early piece by Boye. Enjoy.

Nice, I had one of his a while ago, trade Matt Conable a small Sebenza for it, sweet little knife, very small, mine was a tad shorter than yours I think. But cut well, nice feature with NO tang pin, just a tang TIP that hits the backs of the handles, neat way to handle that, (no pun intended)

But the bail thing was to cumbersome and so I had traded it out, Matt told me I should have hung onto it as not many were ever made...

Very nice! I didn't know he made anything like that.....it does look like that bail would interfere but I really like the overall look.
