New /Handmade from Pascotto.
Very Limited production.
First time this size was made by Pascotto, (and probably the last due to his age/health).
Note: The Pearl has some flaking around some of the pins and push button. The Italians, particularly Pascotto, use "sheet or laminated pearl" which is real pearl that is pressed on a sheet in layers then put over micarta or G-10.
This "sheet" of pearl which is very thin, is not polished or sealed by the Italians; the result is some flaking or crazing that forms around the pins and chips off in layers. (Kind of like a freshwater mussell or abalone shell). This is just the way they are finished in Italy, and it has always been this way, s
o this Pearl piece is being offered the way the master switchblade maker Pascotto built it.
