  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Steel: Mosaic Stainless Damascus over ZDP-189 core @67Rc
Lock: Titanium Frame lock
Handle: Sculpted Carbon fiber with holes (ala Ralph Apogee/EDC) over nuggetized gold/rainbow anodized Ti frame, or Carved Ti bolsters with Exhibition grade white MOPearl, don't forget the file-work

So far, the Delica 3 comes closest. Prefer the blade profile to the Delica 4. Small in the pocket, thin, meets all my cutting needs, opens faster than any of my other knives, and isn't costy.

cheers
