I own a number of CS knives and I am no longer impressed by them. The krayton handles they use rip my hands to shreads if I try to do any serious work with them and I cannot get some of them to hold an edge.

I purchased all of my CS knives prior to discovering Busse/Swamp Rat (Scrap Yard was not in existance yet). I have not purchased any CS products since then and do not feel any temptation to do so. I would much prefer to wait and get another Swamp Rat or Scrap Yard product. In my opinion they are higher quality and I get more bang for my buck here.
