That's 2 pivot free knives in a single post from you. Are you feeling ok?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WICOUNSEL: The blue is pretty. The lines on this one are better than most I see. Still not sold on Shiro. Originally I was borrowing it to sharpen it because he says all factory grinds suck but it's sharp as fuck like my Neon. I ended up stabbing myself with it while cutting a lime up super thin and it is pretty damned sharp. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WICOUNSEL: It's perfect for opening mail! ETA: Truth be told I had always wanted to check one out so I snatched this one up for the right price. I know OTFs aren't necessarily made for heavy duty work, but this one is a lot more slender than I thought it would be. Nice action, feels good in the hand, but probably can't do much more than open mail with it. So either I will have an expensive letter opener or pass it along. |

I'm thinking you would build it in a small cannister out of thin but long pieces, forge weld it cut it into sections then put those into another weld. |

I bought a thing, from a guy... It's apparently shipped, so you'll all see in a day or so.
It's pretty! Least I think so anyway. |

I recently picked this knife up from a friend who had purchased it from a retired SEAL a few years ago. This is a sterile prototype Mission Knives MPK-TI from the early 1990's and was used in the NSW testing for a new SEAL knife. The knife came with 2 sharpeners - a prototype and an issued sharpener. Even though the MPK-TI knife came with a sheath from the factory, the SEALs requested Mad Dog sheaths.
If you know the history between Mad Dog and Mission Knives, having Mad Dog make a sheath for an MPK is a near impossible task, but the SEALs were successful with their request. In addition to the knife, I also received a ton of paperwork from the 1993 knife trials, which contain firsthand reviews of the MPK-TI knives written by SEALs who used the knives in the field. My knife looks new, it somehow escaped testing unharmed. This is an extremely rare set, probably unique, and these documents have never been shown publicly before now.
