Mike Whiskers Allen Custom Tab release automatic knife

Nice little custom tab (backspring) release automatic knife by famed knife maker Mike "Whiskers" Allen. Nice little knife with elaborate scroll work on the bolsters and ATS-34 steel blade. Looks like it was made in 1990 since it has '90 on the tang along with the ATS-34 stamp. The knife measures 6.75 inches open including the lanyard loop on the back/bottom with nickel silver bolsters and liners. The blade appears to be full and hollow ground steel. Nice file work on the blade spine and backspring. The scales are dark with some texture, but not sure of the material. Beautiful little Whiskers Custom automatic, though it is a little tricky to open with one hand. Much smoother if you use two. ;^)
