This is the first of it's kind. The blade is made of A2 steel which is typically what I use when I put together a new design for the first time. It's a big beast I call the Nutria!

Blade steel: A2, .156" stock
Blade length: 3 7/8"
Opened length: 8 3/4"
Handle: .135" thick Ti sides, CF backspacer, Ti pocket clip
Price: $450, includes zippered case and USPS priority insured shipping ConUS
SOLD
Thanks,
-Ray Laconico

That's a nice one Ray! Its way to sweet to be named after a huge rodent though!! :cool:
 
I got to handle this one today, it's quite a knife. Very solid, and Ray did his usual great job on it.
 
That Is Beautiful And I Love The Name Too.
It's Like A Harmless Large Beast...
That's Awesome.

P.S,
The Nutria(The Actual Animal) Is Just A Giant Beaver With A Rat Tail And Orange Teeth, Pretty Cool Actually.
 
That thing is GORGEOUS! a simple beauty with its clean lines, and i love that tall blade.
Wish i had the $$$ for it, it would be a sweet pairing with my A2 steel R.Flaherty large framelock
It's definitely large and robust enough, but too beautiful and graceful to be associated with that giant ratlike Nutria pest.
GREAT JOB ONCE AGAIN!

PS:
the nutria animal is destroying the infrastructure and ecology in the areas it overpopulates. I believe they're not indigenous. I saw a program with cops shooting at them with .22s at night in between calls since they're such a problem. SORRY:(;) But they are one of the biggest baddest rodents around, cousins to THE BIGGEST, the South American Capibara.
 
That is gorgeous, man, great work. Such smooth, gracefull, clean lines! I think i would personally prefer a thumbstud, but that is a minor nitpick, it is still beautiful piece. If I had the dough, I'd be all over this one for sure! Btw, Nostimos, I didn't know that about nutria. I live in Oregon, & there are lots of those big ol' guys around, & I always assumed they were indigenous. They can be surprisingly cute sometimes, for a giant rat!
 
Nice one, can't believe it's still here. If I hadn't already hit my knife spending quota this month it would be mine.
