Thanks Tim, sorry to fill up Seki space. I guess these should go to the Pakistan collectors page but Im sure there isnt one. Those real SEKI daggers are very nice looking.

That;s a very unusual knife. Do you have  any info on why it was called a Lobster Knife?

hi ken.  having seen many variations of the lobster pattern on eBay,  determined this was a more accurate description of this particular piece.

Hi Tim. So what exactly is a "Lobster Knife"? Is it a design that was/is used by Lobster Fishermen? Or a name reflecting

the two blades pivoting out of each end like a lobster's claws? Is hat wehat you mean by ":pattern"? Thanks.
