A coated blade will be less noticable across a dimmly lit bar (and most other places) than bare polished steel. -Just a thought.
I also like the two knife idea. Vic Classic on a keychain is "normal" to all. Little do they know, or need to know, about the Rajah-2 on your hip.
screw the rajah2, go with the espada xl! ya gotta love that extra inch of blade!
