oh yeah, in fact i think it might be the best one ever -- i really like this knife! it's right on so many levels: inexpensive (relatively), made by the Busse family, made of res-c and freakin' S7?!?! my favorite big blade steel, with a convex zero edge (my favorite kind of edge), in satin finish -- i mean, i'd have a hard time dreaming up a knife i liked better... you know?
