Artzi's shipping amazing me. I usually get things within a week from when I order.

I have seen these misidentified as sailors knives because the point resembles a sort of feeble marlin spike. I think the "scribes" attribution makes the most sense. Yours looks very nice.

Hi Marcus. I too saw that on Artzi's Website. While not really into blades, I really like that folder. Very interesting. No clue as to it's origin. Others here would have a much better guess. But here's a guess:
Could this be a leatherworkers knife ? The tapered point reminds me of a leather awl.
