My grail knife, Michael Raymond Estrella Integral Frame lock!

This is the knife that I HAVE to have someday. Estrella or starlit..... Not sure. Maybe starlit.

Amazing knife, I had just gotten over the Sebenza bug before I found out about Scott Cook and Michael Raymond knives; my wallet hurts already and I feel the obsession coming back...
These are absolutely beautiful, anyways. If you had the choice to get a lochsa or Estrella, which would you get? I really don't like the Lochsa pocket clip with the 3 screws, but if I ordered either I don't think I would want a pocket clip.

Wyatt and flyingjon,
As much as I like both the Estrella and Starlit designs, if I had to choose only one, I think I would get the Starlit. Its more sleek!

How about a pic to get this back on topic.

nice review JohnyKwst - i completely agree with your review. also, i think the Starlit nicely deals with the Estrella's only shortcoming - the pocket clip.
btw - have you ever been by Advanced Cutlery in Arcadia? one of the guys who works there is a big MR fan.

I believe Michael has a 3D contoured pocket clip for the Estrella already although I don't know if he is offering it as an option yet. It will even fit older Estrellas.

Yes I have been to Advanced Cutlery many times, I used to live 5 minutes from the mall. However I have not been there in awhile. I moved to Garden Grove about a year ago. I'll have to check in the next time I'm in the area!

Awesome review man, thank you very much.

Michael is making 3d machined pocket clips for the Estrella now.

Estrella discontinued as of late December, 2014.

I love simplicity. This is a modern knife I actually like. Clean lines, no gimmicks. Thanks for posting.
