I love my ASH-1. I think it's one of the most beautiful designed knives out there. The leaf shaped blade is particularly elegant while still being substantial. The steel, obviously, is first rate and I find Infi to be relatively easy to sharpen, though it took me long enough to re-profile the edge. Overall, great knife and just the right size. Anything over 7 inches becomes problematic to carry (for me at least), especially where other people are present. It holds a great edge too.

Just one more point - I prefer the CG ASH (like mine) to the skinny, because it's a full flat grind and with a convex edge bevel cuts like a demon. But this is just a personnal preference.
