Lin I copied this from his post.
6.5" open
Spalted maple scales
very sharp, 0-1 steel
stainless screws
My Damascus bolsters
Anodized titanium liners (purple)
Purple thumb stud (stone) I stole from my wifes jewelry box and inserted in homemade screw head.
More tedious filework this week.

Its the best knife I've every owened

Very nice. Kevin does some FINE folding knives.  Can't wait to see what Kevin gets in return. Things like this is what makes this site so great.  Thanks for sharing.
