"I want answers, Mister!" ~ James T. Kirk

Nu, what is it man? Ats-34? handles? bolsters? size? Spec's I say to you!

Must admit it is a sweet knife, I like the proportions, blade length to handle length. And that's the way I like my droppoint/spearpoints!

Oh yeah ... James T Kirk is one of my Heros!

Here are the specs ...

Blade length: 2 1/2"
Overall Length: 4 7/8"
Blade Steel: ATS34
Handle Material: Stabilized mesquite over elephant ivory Bolster: 416SS
14K gold pins
Sheath pigskin-lined hand-stitched sharkskin, with William Henry pocket clip

Don obviously spent a lot of time considering the balsance of this design, too! I have large hands, and even though it's a small concealer, it fit's perfectly and feels exactly right in the hand. It's sharp too! I was cleaning the fingerprints off it to put it in the display case and I cut a hole in my brand new $60 dollar christmas shirt I'm wearing today! I mean it sliced it like a razor!

Alex- I just got back from my mother's funeral in Florida this afternoon, and your comments were a nice welcome home. Glad you got the knife, and I'm very glad that you are pleased with it.

Thanks, Jerry. It was not unexpected, but it is still a difficult time. I appreciate the thoughts.

Don,

I tell you one thing ... Your mother left us with a heck of a legacy ... YOU!

You're a awesome person, great to deal with, fun, funny and make a knife worthy of the price, by far.

Thank you! She's very proud in what she sees.

"Death is part of life ... both are one. The fear is our own."
