Cute. And remarkably pretty MOP. But more side to side play than a $3 gas station knife.

Bear in mind, this is a tiny knife. And despite Ray’s impressive results below (😜), it’s more of a novelty than anything else. It is a pretty little thing though. And, $10 less than when I got it here a couple of months ago (MassDrop Staff? You can send my Refund check to the address I have on file. 😏)

I had occasion to use mine, attached to a pole, as a make-shift spear after my Beechcraft King Air C90GTx suffered a catastrophic engine failure over Welling Channel, just off the coast of Cornwallis Island. Fortunately I was able to preform an emergency water landing and grab a few necessities before she sank in twenty-fathoms of ice-cold water. After swimming six miles to shore, I found myself on a rocky beach strewn with driftwood. I used my Fumio Inagaki AUS-8 Slip-Joint Neck Knife to quickly construct a comfortable survival shelter and then build a small fire to ward of the howling pack of wolves I could plainly hear in the distance. The next morning I constructed the above referenced spear to harpoon and unsuspecting Arctic Walrus which I then skinned and butchered--again with my trusty Fumio Inagaki AUS-8 Slip-Joint Neck Knife. After a leisurely breakfast of blubber and kidneys, I began the arduous twelve-day walk back to civilization--or what passes for it on that god-forsaken, snow covered rock they call Cornwallis! By the time I reached the remote Government weather station at Resolute bay, I'd used my Fumio Inagaki AUS-8 Slip-Joint Neck Knife to kill and skin three rather large polar bears and seven reindeer. While I admit there were moments along that torturous trek where I wished for a longer knife (and a decent single-malt), my Fumio Inagaki AUS-8 Slip-Joint Neck Knife never let me down. I guess I wouldn't be stretching the truth too far to say...I owe my life to that knife!

Just received this little knife today and it seems even smaller than the reference sitting in the open hand picture. Questionable is this was worth $40.

DieselMasterIt is an amazing piece of workmanship though. The one I just received is quite beautiful and more attractive than the images here implied.
Maybe $40 is steep. But I probably would have paid it if my wife had eyed it at a gift shop while traveling.

Bought one of these years ago. Hangs on my bike keys . The MOP has weathered but looks great. Handy even attached to my keys, otherwise I would probably lose it as it is so tiny. Cool little blade! Like jewelry.

How long is the neck chain?

No quick release = dysfunctional and somewhat dangerous

Sure, that would work. But it's advertised as a neck knife

ParpadeoLooks like a long enough chain to just take the whole necklace off at once.
If you need a different kind of neck knife that's a little faster and more utilitarian, the Mora Eldris is basically perfect if you can carry a fixed blade, or there's the Rike Hummingbird if you want something pretty like this is.
