What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

All the tools open easily. It’s very snappy. It’s a well built knife and I am glad to have picked one up. The covers of vulcanized fiber are interesting.

Sounds great. I only handled such wood fiber scales on an 1908 model soldier knife, they seemed pretty nice. I wonder if it's the same exact material?
 
Thank you my friend, those two compliment each other well, with the contrasting jigging styles, just beautiful :) :thumbsup:
Thank you very mucho, Jack!!!
Have a good Friday folks :) I'm carrying an Old Friend, along with Charlie's #86 :) :thumbsup:

Cool couple of Friday slicers you grabbed today, Jack; your photos certainly captured their beauty, as well! :cool:😁👍👍
 
Too bad remove the spring and tighten the pivot, converting it to a friction folder isn't an option. ☹️

Is it a genuine Okapi or a fake? I heard they were having major problems competing with all the fakes.
I'm not sure how I'd know, but nothing stands out compared to pictures I see of genuine ones. And it's cheap even if genuine so I'm not sure the finish issues I mentioned are very informative. I'd have to buy another to compare I guess

I don't know how to tell the difference either.
A while back another member said most of those on the big auction site were fakes, when I said I was thinking of getting an Okapi.
I decided to forget about getting a real Okapi, and settle for the Cold Steel KUDU and KUDU Light I have.
