Actually Shurke, I was mistaken. Levine calls my knife a serpentine cande-end lobster. A dolphin lobster is also an equal end with candle-ends, but is not serpentine and is pinched near one end.

Lovely knives, Jack. The Ibberson is a real beauty. Are those allen screws in the metal handled Ibberson?
