Sorry, of course, d'Estaing was living in the XVIIIe century

Well... this is merely a renewal of the very old "dague à la d'Estaing", invented Charles Henri d'Estaing, (XVIIe century), who, by the way, fought for the indépendance of the US, and was wounded in Savannah. The main problem in this type of knives (some are stil produce nowadays - see Fox, Mercury, Florinox or Eloi Pernet)is the mecanism.

But you would have to be holding the blade towards you to oget it to flip out in the right direction..? Still cool tho, guy i know has something similar where the sides flip out from the center blade, but it doesnt flip from the handle.

Tim, all I have to say is that if this was real, I would so want to add this to my collection. Of course I blame the weapons nut within me.

Hmm. More varied comments on this, very interesting to read. I won't comment on the actual design, then, since others before me have done so and run the gamut. I WAS struck by the "blueprint," though, and do think you could have added some really personal touches to it. Such as measurements written in a tiny, messy hand, and notes and such. But then, your weapons work usually is very impersonal so I don't know why I thought that. All in all, this picture shows (somehow) that you were having a bit of fun when you created it. ^_^

*nods* Nicely done.
