Limited edition WH Persian???

[dsvirsky]

I was in the local knife store (Edge of the World) today. They had a William Henry Persian with granulated silver bolsters, and what appeared to be Apple Coral scales -- the kid working there said that it was redwood burl, but I'm pretty sure he was wrong. IIRC, both the back spacer and liners were anodized gold. Yellow stone in the thumb stud. Limited edition (#77/100), of course.

I was under the impression that the William Henry company had discontinued making the Persian models, yet this was definitely new inventory. Also, the [now retired] Apple Coral Persian has a plain nickel silver bolster. I've searched the web, but can't find this knife.

Can anyone help me out with some info here? Thanks.

It is redwood burl scales with rainbow pattern bolsters and tiger-eye thumbstone. It is the last run of the T-08 persian and it is a limited run of 100. I think it is listed at www.knifecentre.com . Mine is in the mail, can't wait to see it.

That's it. Thanks.
