Blade Size: 3.5"
Shape: Loveless style Drop with full hollow grind, bevel to spine.
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
Clip: either none, or tip-up Cuchiarra Timascus sculpted custom clip
Hidden release auto opening D/A with a gold-coin as the button, and a William Henry style thumb stud with a sapphire.
Yes, I'd EDC this, and use it. I'm guessing around $900-$1200 for this one, but I will have it someday.

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.

HANDLE Spyderco's G10 (It has to be the stuff Spyderco

I didn't mean to do this, but when I went back and read what I typed I realized I kinda described my Para Military (sans axis lock and H1)
