Purchased off an ebay store from a Canadian dealer I like. Boker Plus Mosier and Boker Vox Rhino with stag handle. I REALLY like the Mosier a lot. Feels great in the hand. I'm sure the Rhino will grow on me too. Very nice knives. Quite happy with both.

Nice pics. The Mosier looks very comfortable too.

Thanks. Personally I'm never happy with my indoor photography - "craptacular" comes to mind. Plus I'm stubbornly using a 75mm macro lens to photograph, which can be a PITA to frame shots in close quarters (I don't like the kit lens much) blah blah, who cares....

The Mosier is very comfy. It surprised me so much I want the custom version now. Dammit.
 
few more of the Mosier and my EDCs...

(Note: I polished the edge using the Edge Pro system, doesn't come that way)

Can I ask you where you picked up the Mosier? No one seems to have them in stock yet and it is a beauty!

Sorry, just realized you picked it up off of Ebay. I just went straight to the pics!!
 
Thanks for those pics.

Unlike your stag Rhino, mine arrive with very proud pins (about 1mm long in some spots.) The pins were sharp & I had to file/dremel them down. Still not perfect yet but much improved.

The knife is a keeper though & lives in the kitchen for me.
 
For those interested, I bought my Bokers from Wholesale Knives and Swords ebay store. Caledon2 is his handle. His name is Rodney and he's good people.

Thing with my Rhino is, even know the pins were ok, the handles were so mismatched it was comical. But I didn't care enough to worry about it. They were also not what I expected texture wise. Feel and sound like porcelain, not stag horn. My Dad had this old WW2 bayonet that he put a nice stag handle on and that stag had a granite like texture. I like that texture a lot. Actually, that bayonet was also a fantastic knife, unlike any other bayonet I've seen. Wasn't a narrow thrusting style blade like the ones I typically saw, but nice wide 7" FFG blade (or 3/4 V grind) and never ever seemed to dull. Used to go outside and "chop shit up" with it all the time. Unfortunately, I left it at a friends house and I never saw it again. A true zombie killer and is greatly missed.
