Damn, what a nice knife. I was surfing through knives at a Collector's site and came across the moki knives. I'd barely heard about them, but it was all good to great. The picture at the site does the knife no justice whatsoever. It comes with a belt sheath which is handy. The fit is so tight that a small amount of pocket lint keeps it from locking up. It's a lockback, and is as tight and well assembled as any knife could be. 3-5/8" closed with a beautiful thin drop point VG10 blade. The blade is polished like a mirror. The stag cut bone, and the whole knife in general, looks way better in person than the pictures.
It came hair popping sharp right out of the box. The first thing I like to do with a new knife is to cut some paper, then re-profile it and put an edge on it. I'm not even touching this one till it needs to be touched up. It's almost too nice of a knife for me. What an under appreciated company Moki is. Those who have one love them. The Japanese take pride in their work, and this knife shows it. I can't get photos on here, but look them up and you can see what they look like.
I'm on a list for a custom knife, and hope I won't be disappointed compared to this one at less than half the price. Sounds like I work for Moki, but I'm just a happy customer.
