A rare Gibeon Meteorite 'Front Flipper' knife by the legendary Master Bladesmith, Des Horn. Known as the model HBP80 (Hidden Ball Pivot), this knife features Horn's, 'Front Flipper' Damascus blade and gold pins: This is not a spring assisted blade, but rather, it's a blade designed to be opened one-handed, requiring only a quick flick of the finger.
