Hallo straight user. Show me your Austrian steelware from Kleinpöchlarn
I am a Koraat fanboy. That's why I'd like to open a thread here so that anyone who also owns one can post pictures about it.
I'll start with mine, which all have a name. OK - I correct: crazy fanboy.

1.) Derbe Olivia (rough Olivia)
6/8"; zero hollow; olivewood scales

I agree, very nice. I never expected to see a Korat zero hollow (wedge), I just assumed everything they made was hollowed. I find my Korat to be quite heavy in hand which has limmitted my abilty to enjoy it as my hands hurt so much these days. Your "travel" razor looks very enjoyable, sure it's not as fancy as the Dragon Lord (I like that design) but it looks so traditional and approachable. Good stuff!
 
Thank you. Yes, Koraat's knives are very versatile. Depending on your wishes, you can put them together yourself using a configurator. Not exactly cheap, but always of the highest quality. I can put the knives on a scale tomorrow and then give the weight here.
