The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel
Vintage 1970's Lakota Teal ~ S. Sakurai ~ Seki, Japan ~ Lockback ~ Stainless Steel/Brass Liners
This is one of several Lakota Teal's that I own, and it is the one that was gifted to me in the 70's by a co-worker. The two flying teal on either side were originally inlaid with 24K gold and the stainless steel scales wore a brushed finish. Time erased the gold and I polished the once brushed scales to a mirror finish. This knife is one of my most highly cherished possessions and has seen daily service for more than 40 years.

Nice Ron! A 40 year old user would be a treasure on its own. Being a gift makes it that much more memorable
