Description: While Arno Bernard is best known for his gentleman's hunting knives, every so often he puts his attention to a folder, and the result is exceptional. This folder has been in a private collection since it was made in the spring of 2006. It has been meticulously cared for and has never been used to cut. By all appearances, Bernard could have made it yesterday.
The Damasteel stainless damascus blade is very dramatic and will have excellent edge retention. A deep red faceted ruby is inlaid into the thumb stud. The blade has smooth action and is well centered.
Crocodile hide scales are set on bronze anodized titanium liners. This, along with the titanium back strap helps keep the knife extremely light, yet rigid and and fast.
Excellent work throughout on a very engaging knife. Arno Bernard built a custom crocodile hide belt pouch that accompanies this knife.
