Wanted to try my hand at posting photos and thought I'd use these I got from Darrel Ralph. These are the new Venturi III (V-III) balis, featuring the licensed IKBS Pivot System and Darrel's Skullcrusher rails with reversible Manipulator latches.

This is the inlaid V-III Balisong with a 3-D black-and-green G-10 "Pistachio" inlay.
http://www.darrelralph.com/assets/knives/balisong/bali2005/balt/baltikbs/fage.jpg I think this knife is only $445 with the S30V bowie blade and Pistachio" Inlay. Nice sneak peek at the SureGrip II carvings on the rails.

And this inlay is called Roasted Pistachio with orange/black G-10 done in 3-D. With the added fully double-ground dagger blade, it's $545 http://www.darrelralph.com/assets/knives/balisong/bali2005/balt/baltikbs/orhan.jpg

This one is inlaid with rayskin. http://www.darrelralph.com/assets/knives/balisong/bali2005/raydam/wingsas.jpg
And this one is unofficially nicknamed the "Wolverine." Those are four very large pieces of AAA mother-of-pearl. http://www.darrelralph.com/assets/knives/balisong/bali2005/wol/wingsdf.jpg
