That's gorgeous - I bet it's a laser too. Exceptionally well done, sir.

Took delivery of this gem this week. Really a very nicely made, lightweight paring knife that just begs to cut something. Love the materials combination, the blade finish, and as always, fine craftsmanship from Robert. Thanks for another great knife, Robert!
