The blade rocks as is. With the input from the team I hope we can all come to an agreement on the possible changes. I am truly grateful to be a part of this, I think the Yard has really gone out of it's way to produce a better knife and to please this relatively small group of knife lovers. Thank you Dan, Patti, Renee and everyone else at the Yard. As bad as things have been getting in the world around us, I'm glad we at least still have the Yard.
