My friend Emmanuel asked me to please post this here.
I hope that you like this pic as much as I do, wish I owned the knife!
Enjoy

It's a fish! ;)

Impressive. Clean. That must have taken weeks to fix all the little MOP pieces and the pins.

Thanks for posting.

Kind regards,

Jos
 
There's a lot to like in this, and a lot to look closely at. Definitely an auto, and wonderful how that blade simply disappears, even with the thin waist.

A machining/engineering wonder in disguise of an art knife. Then again, most are from Mr. Esposito.

Francesco Pachi's image always catches our eyes. Superb.

Thank you.

Thanks much Dave!!!
The dagger is not auto but it has my c-lock patent system. When the blade is closed you push the button and the blade goes out a little bit of the handle so you can open it.
Thanks much guys and let me know what you think about the design

That is really beautiful. Love the detail work on the pearl "scales".

I'm (almost) speechless! The craftsmanship is tops, tops, tops. The design is titillating, stimulating, exciting and even nourishing. I could look at it (a remarkable photo) for hours. The lines are superb. The form, textures and colors astounding. There does not look to be a single molecule that wasn't worked without thorough thought and peaceful panache. Every design aspect is integrated and relates back to the whole. The profile is spot on. I can almost feel it in my hand, especially my finger and thumb up against the guard-like waist. SPECTACULAR!!!
 
Wow!!! I was actually wondering how you closed the thing.

I agree, the thing is sweet, great lines, and a lot of talent went into it.
I think its a squid? Not what I would carry but something I wouldnt mind sitting inthe safe! :)
 
Magnificent. I would love to see a video of this knife's opening mechanism. A lot of great art knives have equally greatly engineered mechanisms that we can only picture in our minds.
