Kissing Crane Mother Of Pearl Stiletto Pocket Knife

The knife was a gift for a special lady. It's beautiful and she loved it. It's very sharp and easy to take care of. It looks great!

These Kissing Crane Stiletto knifes are very nice, I own several of them. The only problem I see cropping up in one out of three of each knife, is the Kissing Crane Shield is not set correctly into the handles, they should be flush to the handle, and not protruding outward, and sometimes you can see what a poor job, they did trying to install them, with glue still hanging out of the edges, that wasn't even cleaned after installment. They also are sometimes crooked. I wish someone would contact there quality control department and tighten up on these issues, none the less, I still give them a 5 star rating.

I have always loved the stiletto design and this kissing crane is a beautiful example. It is NOT a "switchblade" or "auto assist" knife. Original folding stilettos we're made like this one. The mother of pearl looks to be the real thing. What kissing crane has done here is put a very thin layer of real mother of pearl on first and then cover it with acrylic handle scales. This actually magnifies the beauty of the pearl. The brass bolsters are well made and the blade locks solid and comes very sharp. The only con I have on my example is the kissing crane shield on the handle is a little crooked. Not a big deal to me at all. This thing just feels so good in my hand. Definitely going to order the burnt bone and the black handle stilettos next.

Beautiful knife, really worth more then 20.99, shipping was quick and dangerously sharp. Great buy!

Do not even second guess buying this knife. It was a great purchase. It is a beautiful knife and is very sharp out of the box. I take this knife with me every where I go.

Razor sharp, strong lock, no play at all. Looks completely beautiful, I recommend.

Ordered Kissing Crane Mother of Pearl Folding Knife for my husband. He liked it so well that he had me order his two best friends one. Good quality for price.

Really nice Stiletto knife. Looks really cool,just like the picture and the blade came pretty sharp. Good price and fast shipping.

I was very surprised of the quality and craftsmanship of this knife. I must admit I was skeptical but when I opened the box and examined it for the first time I was very impressed. Truly a knife that could be displayed in any collection.

4 words---You will love it

Don't let the price fool you, this is a very nice knife! When the knife arrived, I was instantly impressed at the quality of the imitation mother of pearl handle. It had a nice polished finish, but wasn't too shiny. The blade had a nice finish as well as a nice etching. Out of the box, this knife was already pretty sharp, so putting a good edge on this blade should be possible, but I have not tried it as of yet since I was satisfied with it as is. The knife will require a little breaking in, as when opening, it does hang a little when attempting to engage the lock, but this is to be expected in a new knife, and aside from this, the action is nice and crisp. In the end, I decided that this knife wasn't the best daily carry for me, as I found that I became too used to the one handed opening stud that most of my previous knives have had, but if you do not care about this feature in an EDC, then I would highly recommend this knife.

I just got this knife to day about 20 minutes ago and it looks amazing it looks just like it does in the picture. it is my first purchese from this site and WILL not be the last. it was a little bit bigger than i expected but that fine because i use bigger knives so, yea this knife is friggin amazzing!!!!!

Super fast shipping. Knife came sharp. Great look and feel. Overall awesome knife. Only con i can think of is i bought it as a gift for my brother and had to give it away!

Excellent Quality. It looks just like the picture and incredibly sturdy.

I like it a lot , Very Good Quality ,and Design for the Price! I just Whish it Wasn't Made in China!

Nice knife but the gold bolsters are really cheesy. Love Kissing Crane knives but it is hard to find one not made in China.

very good knife for the money. comes sharpened to a point, but use a diamond stone and it becomes razor sharp. tip is very well suited for stabbing and once sharpened, will cut a pear in half in mid-air. my only problem is that the handle scales on mine dont quite fit in the cut out in the handle and there is a slight line where you can see the epoxy used to hold the scales on. also there is a medium sized gap along one side of the lock on the spine of the knife as if the knife wasnt compressed enough when the pins were inserted in the handle. other than this, this is a fantastic knife and i ordered the imitation abalone with damascus blade a while ago so it should come in tomorrow. however i didnt get a tracking number for that order which is making me wonder when i will recieve that order, but oh well. all in all a great knife with some small fit and finish problems

I got this for my sister's Birthday gift and it's very striking. After opening the box and looking at the handle I found that there is a noticeable amount of black stuff on the edges where the mother of pearl meets the brass. It came off and wasn't too hard to clean. The blade had a good bite to it and was really clean no smudges on it. After sharpening, it's even better. Over all it's a solid knife and I'm sure shes gonna love it.

Like the Rainbow Warrior, this stiletto looks great on the desk. But compared to modern designs like Cold Steel's Tri-Lites (which BUD K has)it is best seen as a desk decoration. Collectors should keep in mind that although Kissing Crane has been around since 1834, it is doubtful that they have always made knives in China. It is a nice looking econo blade.
