I was fortunate enough to get a chance to pick up this great collaboration piece recently. This folder is a product of Joel Pirela's design and Mike Obenauf's construction. It didn't come cheap, but it was worth every penny.

There were ten of these made, from what Mike told me, and this one is #1. These are built tough. As you can see from the lock-up pic, the liners are of very solid thickness, and from the blade centering pic, one can see that the blade is quite beefy (3/16" thickness).

Great work, Mike and Joel!

It's great to see another classic Joel Pirela design. With Mike Obenauf making them they will be top notch I am sure.
 
Sexy, sexy, sexy. It's all about the curves. Nice quality and great choice of material. I give it a 10. :thumbup:
