While I had this one at the show in St. Louis I noticed some things I didn't like about it, I had a tan G-10 back spacer and it was butt ugly and also I didn't want to put a clip on it because I thought it would detract from the looks, but after playing with it some more and watching people pick it up and not know how to flip it I decided I needed to put a clip on it. I made a milled titanium clip and mounted it for tip down carry and then I made some nickel silver back spacers and heat colored them to match the bolsters. I'm happier with the knife now even though it took me most of my work day to do it.

It's up for sale now, I'll post updated photos tonight. The specs are:

Blade - CPM154, .140" thick, 3.7" long (3.5" sharpened) the top edge is not fully sharpened.
Overall - 8.3"
Handle - Titanium bolsters with celluloid tortoise shell.
Liners - 6AL4V titanum, .080 thick
Pivot - 1/8" w/IKBS
Other - Milled titanium pocket clip. Flips with zero wrist action.

Price - SOLD $550 shipped USPS Priority insured (Cont. U.S.)

Thanks for looking :)

I am trembling close as it is thank god there isn't a pocket clip on the narrow end or I'd be a gonner for sure.

Breathtaking work man.
