"12 degrees here in downtown Saint Thomas, PA this morning. The wind has died down, so it is no longer a brutal day."

Moki Aiora
Here is a beautiful Moki Aiora from around 1994. And, I mean beautiful for a 30-yr-old knife!! These were the days when Moki was using ATS-34 for the blades on their higher end knives. What really dropped my jaw was when I saw that back in 1994, this knife retailed for $389. Yikes!!

Thanks Kevin. Really lucked out with this one. It was listed as a Leaf model. Knew immediately that it wasn't, as I bought my daughter a Leaf a decade or so ago. Grabbed it as quickly as I could.

Yep!
You called it when you said I would like this one! As near a flawless juxtaposition of functionality and art as you are likely to find. I remember drooling over these back in the day a bit, but could not begin to think about affording one. I did meet Koji Hara once at a knife show in Winston Salem though! I so wanted to find a way to acquire one of his knives too. That never happened either.
Man, is that a beautiful knife. Thank you for sharing!!
