This is the first if this model. Frame is a solid piece of heat treated 416ss. Deep relief sculpted scroll engraving with 22k gold border inlays. The inlays in the handle are tiger iron. It's very cool stuff with chatoyance int he tiger eye windows, hematite bands and little streaks of red jasper. It measures just over 4" closed.

Blade is CPM154 @ 58rc. Three 22kgold domed pins for opening. The blade is finished to 1500 grit.

Needs a home too, so feel free to inquire.

Hope you enjoy!!

For me, this is one of the nicest dagger bladed folders that I've seen. The tiger iron is beautiful.

When you look at the photos, the three domed pins look like they don't line up on one side of the blade and do on the other.
 
That is some kind of fantastic! There have been a few folders I've seen around that floated my boat, and I'll have to add this one to that little posse.

So...it's for sale, eh? Any chance you need a bike?;)
Hehe, just kidding. Or am I...?:D
 
Bailey's combined clean, modern, "single-sweep" lines from blade tip to butt of the open knife, with a spare amount of ornate, classic deep engraving, to create another unique Bradshaw art knife. Add the amazing "Tiger Eye" inlay to the almost Barlow look of the folded blade, and I find myself looking again and again, and finding more to appreciate.

Tiger Iron is nice stone and as the name implies, it contains iron and is attracted to a magnet.

I agree with Keith in that the center gold dot appears to be a bit lower than the other two on the side of the blade with your tang stamp. I don't consider that a flaw as I would if one of the end dots were not lined up though.

Beautiful looking knife and a pleasure to see it.

Very nice! What is Tiger Iron? Never seen it before.

Kind regards,

Beautiful knife.

When I scrolled down and saw the first picture it literally took my breath away.
