Douk Douk is an awesome little laser. I've got the smaller one and is one of the sharpest I own. Only reason I don't carry it more is I forget I have it.

Great idea, Ronald!  :tu: :cheers:

We definitely needed a Douk-Douk thread to give this classic beauty it's due respect. These guys are just so much fun and are great cutters at the same time! There's a lot of history behind the Douk-Douk as well, not all of it very nice:

like Mercators and Okapis, they are a traditional design widespread in so many countries and social classes that there's some dark moments where they had an unfortunate protagonism other than their utilitarian aspect and use... :P

the merkator locks the Douk Douk does not.

The Mercator feels more high end, more precise.

For a collection, of unusual basic classics, also try a Svord, a Higonokami, a pallares, an Okapi......  I have several suggestions in the knife threads collection thread.

Here's mine:

Kinda big, doesn't get much pocket time. Use it at home, from time to time. Love the blade design.

My thought exactly. Put it in your back pocket and then forget about it until you need it.

It's not a matter of carry, it's a matter of scary...

I came across this last night looking for something else and remembered FoBo saying she was interested in them too.  I've had great experiences with Opinel and am itching to try one of these too.  Where can you get them Nix?
