Description: This elegant gent's front flipper was made by South African knifemaker Barry Barnardt. Barry is a part time knifemaker. He puts his attention toward quality and continuous improvement rather than quantity. Barnardt is a member of the Cape Knifemakers’ Guild as well and the Knifemakers’ Guild of Southern Africa.
This elegant folder shows this influence of Des Horn. It is slim profiled, and at just 3.8oz, it will be easy to keep close by.
The blade hand ground stainless damascus forged by Damasteel. The intricate Fafnir pattern immediately grabs attention. Barnardt cryogenically treated the steel in liquid nitrogen for the ultimate in edge holding and strength. The blade has smooth, consistent action and is perfectly centered. It is easily opened using the discreet front flipper mechanism. This style of flipper is rotated with the thumb.
Gold Dark Matter FatCarbon handle scales are set on anodized titanium liners. The scales are heirloom fit in an elegant arc to Gysinge pattern Damasteel bolsters. The titanium liners surround a stainless damascus backbar.
To keep the knife close at hand, a leather sheath with a pocket clip allows the knife to be worn in the pocket or on the belt.
Excellent work throughout!
