Hey all, moving in a different direction and this needs to go.
This knife started its life as a plain Elmax Nudist and was thoroughly re-worked by Russian Knifemaker Alexey Kukin. His work is very hard to come by in the states and he does not do a lot of these pimp jobs. Quality is top notch and VERY cleanly done as the pics show. His customs sell for big money in Russia and these modifications are a walk in the park.
The frame was contoured, milled externally AND internally before being anodized a gorgeous violet bronze. The barrel spacer was also bronzed. As a result of the work, this knife has excellent grip in the hand and weighs an impossibly light 4.125 ounces. Basically an aftermarket custom division.
Has been lightly carried and used but doesn't show it. Still on the original edge as well. Includes all of the original Shiro packaging and paperwork.
Flips perfectly as you'd expect and is effortlessly smooth, more so than the other single row Shiros I've handled. Once you pass the detent, a simple rotation of your wrist will cause the blade to fall closed.
Price on this is $OLD net FIRM via PayPal, shipped anywhere to the USA. Will consider international shipping on a case by case basis. Hell of a deal considering you'll pay minimally less for a bone stock example.
Thanks for looking and please let me know if you have any questions!
