What Eric said.
I took a look at the YouTube video. There’s filework on the spine. When the knife is opened it makes an awesome click sound. The liners appear to be made of steel with brass bolsters. I want one but I’m short on cash. Maybe I should start a go fund me page. 😀

No need to apologize. I’ve made more of my fair share of “old age creeping up on me.” I would rather the knife have brass liners and I really like the brass slant bolsters. The blade profile is impressive, but I would like a thinner lock tab. It’s an awesome knife.
