The Next Generation: Ferengi Knife

This is another example of a rare and unique Ferengi prop.  This is the actual knife used in the season 7 episode 'Bloodlines'.  The blade is real metal engraved with Ferengi iconography, while the handle seems to be resin or perhaps wood.  It is hard to tell as it is painted.

Even though it was seen in just the one episode, it revealed a violent quality in Ferengi culture.  Who needs a knife when you have all kinds of phasers at your disposal?

It can only mean that this is personal!

What can I tell you about this piece besides how much I obviously love it?  I had an opportunity to buy this knife a couple of years back, but passed on it.  It wasn't until about a year later when I had rethought my decision.  When the opportunity to own it came up again, I made sure that I got it. This knife may have changed hands a few times before it ended up in my collection, but I can tell you that it has found a permanent home here with New Ferenginar.
