Cue the angelic chorus, it has arrived...
I'm so pleased and privileged to have received this knife. I've run out of words to describe it. To quote Rick, "It is the best two blade i have ever made. I hate to ship it. I don't like most of my knifes this one however is in a different level. Its not perfect but pretty damn good for what it is."
Rick's hard work and periodic frustrations with this one really boiled down to a masterful job in the end. Both blades flush in all three positions. You cannnot see any light between the liners. Blades are centered and the extended pen frame is a touch of pure class. Channels are clean and polished. I wish I could capture the swedges adequately, the pen blade has both cut and drawn swedges. The ivory has warm tones of tan, light and dark brown, grey, blue and green.
Enjoy friends.
