Should I get an AG Russell pinched peanut?

[Ernie1980]

Good afternoon!

As the title says, I am looking into this knife in quince wood. I found some older threads, but am hoping to get some owners updated opinion on the knife!
Also, I have a specific question: how deep do the blades sit in the knife? One of my biggest pet peeves is a knife where the blade tip is exposed after one sharpening!!

Thanks

I have an AGR pinched peanut in mammoth ivory. It's pretty much custom quality, great blade grinds and terrific finishing. A wonderful knife. I never carry anything other than single blade knives, but I can't bring myself to sell the peanut because it's so beautiful. My blades are centered and sit well down in the blade well.

Could you please take a picture of the knife next to a quarter or something for scale?

Here's one next to a bottle of beer and some pistachios. The knife is typical peanut length, 2 3/4 closed. Didn't notice the pocket lint when I took this pic several years ago.
