I like the bronze coating, but I'm not digging the Garth tattoo. I'm comfortable with my sexuality, but there's no way I would own a knife with a man's tattoo stamped on the blade. Love ya, Garth. Just not that much.
The bronze coating is a little too "pimp daddy" for me.
As for the tattoo itching: no thank you. I don't have any on my body and don't want someone else's on my blade.
