Previously posted in The Virginian's thread on the ECCKS these are revised (better) pictures. The Stingray is a series of ten knives with different inlays. Mine is 8 of 10 and has what Emmanuel describes as a "watch finish". Those are gold pins in the carbon fiber and gold washers around the timed screws.

I think it's a beautiful piece Martin.. These newer photo's do show the lines, and sculpted nature of the handle better.. The way you described to me how it locks, and unlocks, is very unique.. One thing that I'm sure people might comment on, in light of the other discussion about one of his knives, this is a more conventional design.. That said, it is still very much an Esposito "art" knife.. His construction and finishing skills are evident in your pictures..

I would love to own this knife, and if given the choice between something along these lines, or the all steel fully engraved piece, I'm down for this one... Regardless of any resale concerns.. Another top shelf knife from your collection Martin... Thanks for sharing it.... Best Regards, Rich

While there is plenty of 'right brain' flow to the lines, there is a lot of 'left brain' in the build. Everything in order. Precision machining at it's best.

Question for Emmanuel: Are you right or left handed? I'm going to guess right. :p

Martin: You fortunate dog. :thumbup:
