Copper Glint
I've been wanting a copper handled folder for a couple of years since I bought one for my significant other. I finally decided on this one because it was designed by the world famous David C. Anderson. The black and copper contrast looks great. I love the big belly on the blade. I'm hoping the copper gets a patina over time and use. I guess we'll need some time to see if that happens. It's my first button flipper, so I'm still getting used to the flipping action. The copper handle is a little bit slick, so hold on tight. It's a little bit heavier than my other knives.
