Very lovely knife. I like the natural materials and subtle design lines. Some will suggest that this should have been placed in Off-Topic as it is not Spyderco related, but I'll thank you for sharing all the same. Any other info on it?

Hello antoine! Nice to see French guys in this forums!
Your knife is very elegant and it reminds me that it made a long time I didn't come to the Ile-de-Ré!

First they made things sharp, then they made sharp things… and the happiness of the guys who love quality knives!
