golden dragon?

[nybble]

Hey, was looking on knifezilla (those pc's!!) and saw they were selling a taylor seto golden dragon. Anyone got the news on this? I like the inserts that go all the way to the top and bottom of the handles, but worry that they may not be the most robust things to be around the pins? Also, it says that the handles are extra wide - this is something I have been very curious to see even before I saw this knife, as most bali handles are roughly the same width... How wide are these?

Thanks for any information.

If memory serves, and the perspective on the photo isn't all that skewed, the blades were about 1" wide. Closed the handles would be at least 1.25" wide, not counting the end of the latch. Don't worry about the handle inserts, they're in there tight, and are protected from the handle to handle impacts. Again, just my $0.02.
