The Tridents are hard enough to find, but this one is VERY hard to come across, as these distressed and treated versions were released later after the initial launch, in VERY limited quantities. For these, the awesome Damasteel damascus was etched, and then the whole piece was treated to create a wonderful patina with the appearance of age. It gives the top a sort of steampunk look that I dearly love. If I didn't have one of these in the collection already I'd never let go of it, that's for sure. Such a wildly cool top!
