I have been wanting one of these little folders for a while and finally got to handle one in person at Blade. I ended up buying one from a dealer and was told that Mr. Barr wanted to take it and get it photographed. I went over to his table and met him. He is a really nice guy. I gave him the knife and he told me I could pick it up later that weekend. I asked him about putting a clip on it and he said he would take it back home with him and put one on it for me. I figured it would take a week or so to get the knife back so I just forgot about it. Well, a few minutes ago the mailman brought me a package from Mr. Barr. I couldn't believe that he got it back to me so quickly. Man, he must have put the clip on it the minute he walked in the door from his trip to Atlanta :) I want to personally thank Mr. Barr for the quick service and the great knife. I am sure I will enjoy this blade for many years to come. Heres a picture I just took of it. Its sweet!

What a cool little blade :cool: What's the blade length on that, roughly 2 1/2"? Looks like a real high class Spydie ;)
 
Thanks guys. The blade is ATS-34 and is about 2 1/2" and the handles are red jigged bone. The spacer, liners, and bolsters are titanium. The liners are also jeweled. Its a very neat piece.

I love that little knife. It intrigued me when I saw a picture of it a couple of days ago. I really like the hole and the jigged handle.
 
Mike my friend, you really are hard to figure out! From Snody and Ryan to this! How 180 can you get! This is a wonderful piece! I really like it a lot. Nice choice and I see your "love of Spyderco" influence! Mikey likes it, just like me! ;)
 
Hey Mike,
I noticed you picked up a Tom Maringer "Scalpel" at Blade. I sold a mini and a regular Scalpel this past summer for a song. Even though I know you have every knife in exsistence, you should always check with me first!;)
 
A.T. is one of the nicest knifemakers I have had the pleasure of dealing with. Always goes out of his way to make you happy. I have several of his knives and they a great. Besides good looks, exceptional fit and finish, etc. they are very inexpensive for the quality you are getting.
