Stephane Sagric is from Saint-Émilion in the Gironde department in southwestern France . His knifemaking skills are very well known in Europe, and after attending Blade Show 2022 his work now has a global appeal. His work is highly regarded by both his fellow knifemakers and collectors. Stephane makes some of the finest folding knives, available anywhere. From raw materials to the meticulous construction and assembly, it is all about the fit and finish of the knife. He has mastered the ability of making a piece that is both functional, as well as pleasing to see and hold. His fit and finish is top shelf, each knife having incredible detail. This liner-lock, front flipper is brand new and direct from Stephane at the 2022 Blade Show. The harpoon-shaped blade is Chad Nichols Starfire Damascus. The curved bolster, tip-up mounted pocket clip and backspacer are all zirconium. The liners are titanium. The scales are Dark Matter Gold Fat Carbon. Stephane has added just enough jimping on the blade spine to assist with flipping the blade open with your thumb. The blade flips open super smooth and quick. The blade has just the right detent, locks up rock solid, sits centered in the liners, and there is absolutely no lock stick. The knife comes in a Sagric padded zippered case. This knife is outstanding!
