Yes, Magnum, it has a "weird" profile. I think the long straight part from the belly to the point will work for precision slicing. The recurve behind the belly should work for cutting line. I'll just have to use it a while to know. It is a wicked-looking blade, though. Should be an effective sticker or intimidator, as the case may be. At least we know the Heat is good for slicing pepperoni. This knife should work on that, too. I like it. It is fun to flick!
