COPPERHEAD MOP

Post by Quick Steel »

This 2nd generation Bulldog of 1993 is covered with the typical high grade Solingen MOP. 4" long in a Copperhead pattern it has excellent F&F. I consider the hafting to be superb because of the extra smooth transitions of MOP with the nickel silver bolsters. The two blades came with good sharpness and are well-positioned, e.g. no blade rub. The master blade carries images of a rabbit, a hound, and the words RABBIT HOUND.

I always like different shields and thought the Heart was pretty cool. Lots of fire in that Pearl too. ::tu::

Another great one. I would like to see a picture of all of you BD pearl handled knives together in a display. I know you have acquired an absolutely top notch group of pearl BDs.

Thanks Mark. I only have half a dozen MOPs tho I think BD does an exceptional job with them. As resources permit I will certainly acquire more.

Am getting increasingly frustrated with the AAPK site. It took me about 4 minutes just to get your post to open up so I could reply to it.
I am sure it is even more frustrating for Brian. I hope there will soon be some light at the end of this tunnel. :(

That knife is a beauty, QS. Seems like Germany gets the best MOP, and that knife sure has some of it.

Thank you Mel. Have never been disappointed with a BD MOP. Sometime I would like to hear the experience of anyone who carried and used a MOP knife of any brand. I never think of MOP as being practical but perhaps it is.
