Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

Just in off the exchange a sucker rod wood #86. I got one when they first came out, sold it, then regretted it, now got one back. Thanks, Joey.

This one has exceeded my expectations. I was expecting the great fit and finish, but it is so light.View attachment 2382175
Moki's build quality is amazing, on those lockbacks you almost cannot see the line between the blade and spring, plus the action is sublime. Plenty of manufacturers (and 'Custom' makers..) could take a lesson from Moki the next time they come up with excuses about the complexity of making these knives...blade play?? What's THAT replies Moki :D
 
Very nice José. May I ask it's size?

Thank you very much, these are the explanations from the brand's website:


HUBERTUS Backlock Series "10"​


Our smallest HUBERTUS backlock series „10“ with locking blade (5.5 cm / 2.17") and classic backlock at the back of the handle is characterised by a length of the handle of only 8 cm / 3.15", the overall length with opened blade comprises 14 cm / 5.51".
Knives of this series are generally called „Adelsmesser“ ("nobility knives").
Liners: brass
Bolsters: solid nickel silver

Thanks for sharing the details.👍🏻
 
"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!"
Fed Ex had left the big box by the time I got back home, the mailman brought the little package before I took off my boots, and he came back with the middling package a few minutes later.

The larger Henckels is made in Germany, the smaller one in Spain. The coarse diamond stone is a Smith's. The Marbles claspknife is a little over a 3" blade, smaller than I expected but a good pocket size. The associated compass has a surprisingly heavy case.
The OKC axe was one fifth of MSRP, which made it look much less like a silly fantasy piece to me. (If it isn't a traditional blade, it's a tool included for atmospheric staging purposes.)
The OKC Morta is a very nice knife, 4.5" from tip to handle material. The De Santis sheath's keeper strap is so tight you have to really work to make the knife rattle in it.
The OKC Air Force survival sheath is extra, just in case I should need one someday.
The white stuff on the ax blade appears to be some kind of wax.
