That looks nice John !! I expect that I have seen one at a dealers site ?? Without mentioning the dealer , how were they to work with ????

Actually, I didn't work with a dealer. I dealt directly with Michael. He made this one specifically for me. He doesn't make two blade versions of this knife, but he worked with me to make this one. He's excellent to deal with.
