Comments: This magnificent inter-frame, is the brainchild of Antonio Fogarizzu, former President of the Italian Knife Guild. Antonio was one of the remarkable artists featured in David Darom's book on the very finest folding knives. Antonio's fit and finish are astonishing and stand comparison to best folding and fixed blade inter-frames made anywhere in the world.
The Bulino engraving is by Italian Master Manrico Torcoli, one of the finest and most sought after gun engravers in the world. The detail and shading is astonishing and this is simply one of the two or three finest engraved knives we've seen at any price. You must see the knife in person to believe the quality and realism of the work!
The action of the folder is silky smooth, and the overall polish is truly superb. Topped off by wonderful hand-selected Presentation Grade Black-lip Pearl, this outstanding knife is a modern folding knife collectors dream. Comes complete with a nicely made leather pouch.
