And I didn't obtain this gorgeous knife to put it in a safe, what with its rare and impossible-to-make-anymore snakeskin handles. Nope, I'm turning this one into a user! :eek::thumbup:

I can't wait to put this one more thoroughly through the paces.

Thanks to the two great Hogs who helped me work out a three-way trade to end up with the Mr. Mojo :thumbup:
 
The balance is quick, sort of like the M9LE. Definitely has the feel of a fighter to her. I would say she won't be amazing as a chopper, but capable, much like the M9LE. The full flat grind is, of course, awesome for batoning, although the Mojo isn't very thick, so it would be a better wedge if it were thicker.

I haven't tried much brush slashing, which is where light and fast recurves usually shine. For the relatively light weight, though, I like the feel of this knife a lot, for the same reasons I like the M9LE. Good balance, quick in the hand, and light enough to carry without feeling encumbered, while long enough to do some serious camp chores like batoning.
 
nice score, I was looking at that one...
I'm not sure what my hold grail knife is...
 
Congrats Bro

The mojo is the knife that hooked me years ago. I saw it and just had to have one. Many have come since then but I will always cherish this one as the knife that started it all.
