Traveler's Shabbos Folder

Hi all --
I ran across this a few months back and couldn't resist getting it. A friend who can read Hebrew told me it basically says Good Sabbath on the handle. It's used to cut the challah bread. But since it folds, I'm told it is specifically a "traveler's" knife for when one is away from home on the Sabbath. Wonder if anyone has seen these before. And how about the manufacturer. Seymour Stainless Japan. Anyone heard of them? Handles look to be faux pearl. As this is my first post, if I'm in the wrong subforum, just let me know. Thanks! Brian.

I almost bought a Kabar that is very similar to your knife, but I was advised that it was overpriced, so it was a no-go! 
You posted under "Knife related Q & A", and seeing as you had questions about the knife, 
you posted it properly. 
I haven't seen this particular knife before, but being built in Japan you can be fairly sure it's a quality piece! 
to AAPK, you're gonna have a bunch of fun here! Mark!
