I carried that little hammer brand everyday for the better part of 11 or 12 years, but now it routinely gets swapped out with this Puma One Trick Pony... (more info on it HERE)

GEC Powderhorn with Paul Knife in E. I. , I've decided to start carrying and using this one due to the impending ban, and it's subsequent devaluation if that happens :(

Aren't these both traditional?

I certainly give credence to your opinion and think there may be many others who consider Moki knives as 'traditional.' I wouldn't argue that they are not, but to my eye, they seem to exist in that murky/blurry/grey area between modern and traditional; the lines and blade grinds seem sleeker to me somehow and VG-10 is definitely modern, imo.

Either way, it makes for interesting discussion and I'm pleased that my photo of the 55 and Serapis inspired you to pause a moment and comment! :thumbup:

Gev, that thing deserves to have a nice tip reground onto it. The rest looks cherry.

Jeff. I think the tip shape was a kind of standard with Curtain & Clark. I have two in my collection and both have this tip shape. I have seen only a few more and they had the same shape. I kind of like it. The whole knife is quite nice but needs the scale epoxied down. I need some West Systems as thin CA and reg epoxy have not cut it, so far.
 
Case - Bose WT and a "Little David" fixed blade made by Bud Nealy. The WT is 154CM the Nealy CPM154. The Nealy knife maybe could pass for traditional but his multi-position Kydex sheath doesn't.
