Early 2000 Suchat Jangtanong Custom Ornate Thai Folding Damascus Art Knife. Item is unused, never carried, near mint only! Item has incurred a very minor issue on one side of Mosaic blade caused by being left un- oiled for a few yrs. Being Damascus steel, you never leave them in their leather sheath & always keep them lightly coated with oil. The later did not happen with this piece, was kept in a velvet pullstring pouch and forgotten! Luckily, it’s fixable with just a dab of acid on the spots of issue. Refer to photo #6 and determine if a deal killer for you. Other than that, a feast for the eyes and a joy to show off to friends! Scales are of heavily engraved/sculpted Black Lip Pearl, engraved 24k gold plated bolsters, 24k Gold plated liners, Gold plated hardware, jewel tipped thumbstud, Blue Ano Titanium Backspacer and heavy jimping and anodizing thru out! Action is faultless, lock up is early and tight, ergo is heavenly!! Each are handmade, so no two are alike. Sale is “AS-IS” and Final!
