Re: Other Seki Made
You’re welcome Rick, that has to be my favorite folding hunter of all time. I like the bolster lock on these and the Japanese quality is top notch. Glad you like it.

Re: Other Seki Made
TopDog, those are two nice MIIs. Looks like both were made in the same place in Japan. Probably G.Sakai.

Re: Other Seki Made
I like those, Dog, and just realized they're not from Gerber. I prefer their non-serrated model though!
Used in a fight involving Tommy Lee with Steve Segal using one of his throwing knives in, "Under Siege".
Nice fighting daggers!

Tommy Lee & Steve Segal were in "Under Siege"? ... I thought the movie was about Erika Eleniak popping out of a cake at birthday party ... That part was burned into my memory ... FOREVER!

Re: Other Seki Made
Nice TopDog, that first one is sweet. Never seen that one before. Looks very well made. I don’t know recognize the name of the craftsman, wonder if her did these in the 80’s or 90’s. Being made of 440 stainless makes me think 80’s early 90’s. I like the CS knives. I watch them every day on eBay but haven’t pulled the trigger on any yet. Nice collection.

Re: Other Seki Made
Very nice, Dog, I too like the first knife the most and haven't previously seen it, I commented on your Cold Steel in another thread, and I just don't care for your Spydie, but as a fat singer once said, "two outta 3 ain't bad!"

Re: Other Seki Made
Got in another Seki City Paragon Dagger today.
Fully intended to sell it when purchased, but after receiving, it goes too well with the dark handled one I have just like it.
So, I got me another one. but

Re: Other Seki Made
Smashing, Tony, I got my black model from Mark awhile back and it too is my favorite dagger! What could anyone not like about this knife? I viewed the Rosewood model also, but ultimately the black stole my heart!
Great minds and sets at work here!

Thanks Mark! Glad you said rosewood ... I have been trying to figure if it is rosewood or sandalwood.

Re: Other Seki Made
I said Rosewood due to how bright it looks, Tony, if I'm correct Sandalwood is darker, but I am waaay far from being an expert on exotic woods, so S-wood may be right.Corn Creek Cutlery wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2024 2:07 pmThanks Mark!

Black micarta, Rosewood, Sandalwood who cares, it's a spectacular dagger whatever the covers are!

Re: Other Seki Made
On a hunch I checked Paragon Knives @ ACKnives.com , Tony, and saw 2 copies with black paper linen micarta covers, and 1 with rosewood covers. Unless he made them with other exotic wood than rosewood as well, I guess we have to assume yours are rosewood. I'll say it again, beautiful dagger!

Re: Other Seki Made
Found this one last week...
Hattori Made Valor 334 Super Sport Mint In Box 5 1/4" Closed ... 9 1/2" Open
As Mark has stated here before, there is a difference you can see and feel about Hattori made knives.
Excellent run up, fit and finish, and a solid, tight sound opening and closing, with smooth travel.

Re: Other Seki Made
This is uncanny, Tony, I commented on your Valor in a different thread, but when I saw your Fury my jaw dropped! I've wanted an all-metal Laguiole for a looong time, but the prices have been ridiculous so I haven't yet pulled the trigger. Kindly tell me where you got yours at a reasonable price! Thx!
Those great minds sure are hard at work!
