Beautiful. And interesting how narrow it is.
I searched for something like this everywhere on the net but couldnt find anything.

You guys need to stop drooling and just send Bart a message, he's great to work with and his prices are very reasonable. It is a rock solid tool, copied from an original, and is as well built and handy as it is beautiful.
