Oh joy, another knife! IIRC, the {ma'veq} has curved twin blades ... for those of us who try to keep our Klingon blade lore straight. As an exercise for the collective, just how many types of Klingon knives do we know of now?
I think I have that episode on tape so I'll take a look at it this weekend.
