The "City" by Jean-Pierre Martin.
He usually makes upscale knives, this one is one of the relatively affordable models, but still far from cheap.
I played at the Paris show last year with the proto of this model and I knew that if I find it for sale this year I'll get it.
The knife is insanely well made, very fluid action and top grade fit & finish.
The blade is handrubbed RWL34 and has 90mm (about 3 1/2"). Stainless bolsters and liners, CF scales.
The lock is a "hidden" liner, to unlock you push the button. Like a mix of linerlock and button lock.
To open you use the blade bit that sticks out, like on the Burger knives.

Funny, but when I went through your extensive thread, THIS folder really spoke to me, too. :thumbup:

I am impressed.

Thanks and congrats!
