GTC Gus Cecchini custom Plasma folding flipper knife

This is a unique and one-off custom flipper from GTC knives (Gustavo Cecchini of Brazil). It is his Plasma flipper, made specifically for the USN G6 knife show. It features a 4 harpoon-bowie tanto blade of S35VN, which is multiground, and has hand-rubbed satin flats with dark stonewashed grinds, spine, and swedge.

The 5.5 titanium handle has deep carved areas which are dark stonewashed to contrast with the hand-rubbed satin finished high surfaces. This allows for the pocket clip to be mounted entirely flush and completely unobtrusive but also highly functional. The real highlight of this knife is the four blacklip mother of pearl inlays. They are absolutely gorgeous, with amazing color and depth (ranging from greys/blacks to pearlescent to greens to pinks/reds), and seamlessly mounted into the handle -- you can run your finger over them and they feel as one piece with the handle.

Inlays are Gus' specialty and he really knocked it out of the park on this one! The hardware is all custom by Gus and his logo is etched onto the blade and clip. He also hand signs the tang with the model, blade steel, and year. The action is incredible -- fast, snappy, lots of recoil from the big blade, and so smooth on Gus' own caged bearings that it closes under its own weight.

Lockup is rock solid at about 60% -- no play whatsoever. Comes with GTC soft case and certificate of authenticity.

The condition is excellent with just hairline marks on the satin portions of the handle/clip and on the front pivot. Use appears to be none and carry minimal.
