Moki with MOP checker board inlay
I have owned this knife for about 3 years now. My wife bought it for my birthday. For the last 2 and a 1/2 years I would take it out of storage and look at it, remembering that my wife gave it to me. My thoughts were always the same when looking at it: "well made, beautiful craftsmanship, lovely mother of pearl inlay, it just ain't my style." I never wore the knife as I considered it a little too feminine in looks. Of course I never told my wife this.
Lately however, the knife has been growing on me by leaps and bounds and I wear it every time we go out somewhere. I really love this little knife!
It is a lock back folder at 5 and 3/4 inches long open, closed it is 3 and a 1/4 inch long. The blade is made of VG10 steel and came out of the box sharp enough to cut arm hair easily the inlay material is a combination of black and white mother of pearl. the sheath is a green canvas material and the lining of the sheath is a very soft leather, it can be worn on the belt but there are two holes provided on the sheath for a leather thong so that it may be worn around the neck.
Pics wont post for some reason. I'll try later.Last edited by JMS; 02-20-2009 at 07:00 AM.

If you wear it around your neck, it'll look great with your pink bath robe
No but seriously, try to get the pics online. I'm curious. As you describe it it sounds very nice.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.

It looks well made. Not girly at all... well, not much at least
.
The slenderness is actually quite elegant and it looks like a handy little knife to carry.
That was a very nice gift from your wife.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
