Spyderco Domino flipper

So I received my Domino today, and the first word I uttered on seeing was "gorgeous" (typically reserved for something else ;-)). Yeah, that's how those scales and the titanium side finish looks. The flipper action is a bit "gritty", but I guess it will smooth out as I flip it more. Some pics for your to enjoy (and a few comparison shots for relative size as well). For those who are wondering, that's a BM Ritter mini-grip in CPM-M4 with Cuscadi carbon fiber scales (not a BM Gold Class mini grip).

What a superb scale pattern

The carbon fiber is not very grippy, as compared to G10.
