I bought this knife new, carried it a couple times to church, and realized it was too nice. The expense of making this model was high, so they have discontinued it….. So, it’s destined to be a classic and rare to find. Not only is thisThe LionSteel OPERA is a jackknife with a classic design and a lock back system. The blade on this knife is premium Damascus steel with a razor sharp edge. The handle/frame features stainless steel liners with genuine Stag scales. The blade is hollow ground.

The LionSteel OPERA is a great every day carry knife and at only 3.1 ounces, you will hardly notice it in your pocket.
