Lakota Teal (tarnished)

Lakota Teal (tarnished) *no box This is a Lakota Teal lockback.  Made in the early 90’s in Seki Japan by some of Japan’s finest craftsmen.  This is a patented design by Sei Kanematsu.  The knife is designed to be able to stand up on edge with the blade facing down without touching the surface, handy for precision work where you constantly need to set it down and pick it back up.  The blade is made of high carbon stainless steel and has not been used or resharpened and retains it’s factory edge.  The handles are brushed stainless steel as well and are chip and crack free.  Measures right at 2 1/2″ closed OAL.
