I have a grail knife on the way from James Parker on the Bay...
1980s Original Junglee Hattori Fighter Seki Japan MV-8 Steel ... 13.25 OAL .... 7.75 Blade
Been looking for this one a long time.
Tried to save a pic, but can't get it to show here, although it displays on my computer.

Thank you QS!
I have waited a long time for this one. I must be saving the Bay photos incorrectly.

Thank you, good Sir.
It’s basically an upgraded Ritter Mini Grip that Benchmade used to make. Benchmade severed ties with Doug Ritter so he went to Hogue to carry on his design. Hogue made a few upgrades including Omega springs that have a larger “loop” which places less stress on the springs.
An effort to rectify the problem with broken Omega springs. I have confidence in the upgrade(s) and in Hogue in general.
Thank you for the compliment.

NICE catch, Tony, it's you all over, and it's a Hattori no less. Outstanding find after displaying great patience finding it, you deserve it buddy, and at that price point I'd say you stole it, too. He shoots he scores!

A real handsome knife you have there, Rick, congratulations.
Everything I've read or heard says Hogue makes fine knives, and yours is an example of that.

Thank you Rick! One of the things I like about this forum, is getting pieces of info like you just posted, about a particular knife.

Many thanks Mark! I got a San Mai CS SRK a few weeks ago at a yard sale, and was very excited about it. But this Hattori is a different animal.
I will remain giddy till it arrives tomorrow, then be Mr.
again.

I just found a Case knife that I could afford.
One of those 3" SS "Executive" LB knives. (M1225L)
Sounds like a sweet knife!
...
I am looking forward to seeing the pictures...
when they hit the thread....
In the meantime, I think that I'll have a beer or three to pass the time...
while I take a picture of my new RR Trapper (with a razor blade and red bone scales) that arrived in the mail.... I got one a couple of weeks ago and I liked it so much I had to get another one as a "back-up-EDC" ...
