Welcome to "Blue Ridge". This knife is an example of our "Blue" steel process which combines Stainless steel and Carbon steels together in the forging process. The pattern in the blade and bolsters is "Ladder" as it rises and falls. The pearl inserts are "Blacklip" pearl that was cut from an actual shell in our shop. This knife measures 6 3/4" open and 3 3/8" closed.
