Very nice slipjoint by ALCAS.
They made their name for outstanding stag handled models, but also made quality all-stainless models.
This was one of those.
Real natural Paua abalone and MOP from New-Zeeland - fiery greens, blues, silver and pinks.
Bolsters are stabilized elder with brass inserts.
Backspring has been stippled.
Flaming edge on the blade.

Where did you get it and how much did it cost?

Easy to sharpen? Any issues with pearl handles?
 
It was a factory knife by ALCAS to begin with.

It has been sold.:thumbup:

Here is a Puma Prospector I did with Russian Olive wood and a bit of brass.
Stippled all over.
