MICKAEL MOING 

I was contacted several months ago by a very good European Customer of mine who was excited to share his new acquisition ~ a Gorgeous Friction Folder from an Aritist in France named Mickael Moing.

When I saw the pictures of Mickael’s work I quickly contacted him and placed an order, he explained it would be a few months as he was just so busy.  True to his word I received the knives and I am extremely glad I was patient enough to wait for the order.

 ~ Just Received – Direct from the Maker ~  

 This is a traditional utility folding knife, what we may call a Friction Folder, the Europeans once called a Penny knife.  This is an excellent Full Size blade with smooth action and is Light for its size.

When the blade is opened the exposed Tang folds back into the handle and then the Thumb rests on it to help keep the blade in place.
