I have always liked them. Even the newer stainless models sharpen up fairly well. They are 420HC.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

imho.. it simply wouldn't be a "mojo" without the catch!
that's part of what gives this knife its personality!
i am almost certain the "uncle" is intended to stand for Un-Mojo.

+1 I agree w/ Tony on this. The day I get in a 1 on 1 knife fight will probably be the day I forget to pack a knife. Hopefully the Springfield XD .45 will be close at hand.

When I get a Mojo, you can be sure than I will put a sharpened swedge on it right away. I had planned on geting one of each style. Both will get the "treatment".

Horn Dog,
Your work is excellent. I would love to send my mojo to you to modify if it would not be too much of and imposition. ( Oh yea- when I get it!)

No problem, ksjumpmd. I am confident enough to do that now.

ZeroNine & Horn Dog,
Agreed.. the blade catch & my sharpened swedge will most likely be used only against imaginary knife-wielding zombies.

Wow, so far "without & hate" have almost as many votes as "love it"!

No wonder they make both versions!
iirc, SwampRat sold out of the Catched version quicker!

i want one too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
it's on my long list of "Stuff to Buy"!

so far i've heard only good things about the XD45.. very reliable by all accounts, seems VERY well conceived.. w/ tactile indicators for chamber loaded AND cocked!

i've carried 1911 gov't models for years.. and well.. they're Heavy! cheap ones often balk at anything but ball ammo.. and need Lots of tweaking, gunsmithing..
methinks the XD45 could be the "perfect" out-of-the-box .45 EDC !

then again.. i've said that about MANY other guns! ..too many..

I know I am slow, but I guess I missed the thread about Ted's mini mojo photo making it into the ad over at Swamp Rat. WAY TO GO TED!!!

Good question. I use the mouse pad a lot. However, I don't own one recurve in my collection.
