Default Knife size mead peek nok

and a small one, very similar but more recent. This may or may not go by the same name.

Hello Dave,

thank you very much for comment! No, it's a different animal, similar purpose but would be called with an other name. The seller from your very nice mead peek nok is a very close friend from me and of course I've shown him my knife already but he can't tell me the name of my knife but will ask a Thai friend so maybe I will be able to provide a name for this knife in near future. The blade tip of my knife is the so called hua bua tip.

Best regards,
Detlef

Thank you for posting this picture. This knife seems to have a bamboo handle with a similar blade shape like the one which Dave has posted. And this picture show that this are utility knives.

Hi Detlef.

Very nice knife you have there and a much better quality than many similar utility knives. I'm more familiar with longer handled versions of this blade shape, and have a number of those types, some of which are quite good quality but most are purely utilitarian.

I have been taking a break from online auctions lately, otherwise I would have given you a run for this one.

Ian.

Hi Ian,

Thank you! When you have pictures it would be nice you would show them. And good for me that you have taken a break from online auctions.

Regards,
