An outstanding new model (March, 2012) from Tore Fogarizzu, another member of Italy's Premier knife making family. This is a beautiful Art Deco Style Spearpoint, finished with assorted solid gold trim including bolster details, and blade release. The inlays are premiere exhibition quality Pen Shell with soild 18K Rose Gold accent work.
The knife functions like a fine mechanical timepiece from Patek Philippe...Push the Gold "Button", and the blade gently pops out a bit (see pic #2,) at that point you get the pleasure (honestly) of pivoting the blade open. When you are ready, push the button again, and enjoy the ride back to closed.
Tore Fogarizzu makes fewer than 25 knives per year. He attends but one US-based show (generally the East Coast Custom Knife Show) held in New Jersey each February. Oh ya, a couple of times a year our friend Paul Shindler over at www.KnifeLegends.com gets a knife or 2 directly from Tore....
