Muito agradável!
Its unlike any balisong I've seen before. I wish it was coming to me.
Mauricio is getting quite good at making exciting blades and handles for balisongs. Can we get a closeup of the handle inserts?- Joined

Nybble,
Yes, it has a curved blade. I will try to take a new picture with emphasis on the edge.
Penguin,
I didn't know you could speak portuguese so well.

I really like it!!! Though I am still waiting for another blade style to appear.
I absolutely love how those inserts are done, very tasteful, similiar to those on PABU balisongs, very nice touch!!!!

Its a Dobruski...what can I say?
However, I do see one thing I would personally change.
I like the handle design, but I would prefer a brighter wood inlay. It looks nice, but if the wood was a nice polished reddish color...whew...

It looks very nice, but I don't see a double tang pin or a kick in the picture. May I ask how the blade is kept from contacting the handle?

There doesn't look like much a kick, but maybe --just enough--...That and some creative milling, and it would work just fine...
That is a really sweet tanto. Is the swedge a razor, too?? I like this one even better than the white handled one.
I might just have to git me one of them with Mammoth fossil ivory inserts, with a --WIDE-- belly scimitar...
Very sweet knife...
It's a beauty...

Daaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmnnnnn!!!
I think I'm in love
I think I'm in loveI love it...simply love it!!!
I've always been a sucker for blades that are a bit unique and different, and considering tanto's are my favorites anyway, this one is deffinately at the top of my list.
I wonder how it would look if the front part of the blade (what is that part called on a tanto anyway?) was also curved in just a bit. It would make a smaller angle where the blade turns up and give it a bit of a "mean" look.
What is that wood in the handels. I like the double inlay a lot, it really gives it some personality (as if the blade weren't enough!). I've been putting off spending the money for long enough, it looks like a Dobruski is going to be in my near future!
Great work!!!
