Now I need study this blade and see what it is all about.
Here are some websites I've found; they are reviewing Nessmuk knives made by other manufacturers, but they talk about the history of the knife and the utility of the blade shape:
The blade shape and size seem to be an attempt to achieve a balance in performing multiple tasks as a field/hunting/general utility knife. While big choppers are fun, this is exactly what I NEED in a fixed-blade right now, and I feel fortunate that this happened to be what SYKCO decided to put out next.
