Now I need another one because this is going to see a lot of carry time and I need a spare.
AND I really want one in an uncoated finish - satin or DC would be fine. Everything else leave the same!!!

love it, now waiting for a sheath for safe pocket carry.

You could get one and strip the blade like alot of folks do.

My mother told me if didn't have anything nice to say then don't say anything but that never stopped me before.

I might do that. I'll get a second in any case, but don't know if I'll ever get around to stripping one. We'll see how well it handles cutting chores first.

I feel like getting a spare/safe queen 311 too. This knife glides through leather, paper,and cardboard with ease. I think it will probably be my go to user Busse-kin. It took the place of my Swampwarden and Scrapivore overnight. Although it is in the same size category, it feels much more comfortable in hand than my other two knives. They are just lighter to carry on long hikes. Something this nice should have a spare at factory pricing because if something happens to it, there may not be many available on the secondary market and if there are, they will cost you a nice chunk of change.

Got two and feel like I need an extra still, it's an addiction I know. But I'll hold out for a variation of another color or finish.

Yup, that is my reasoning too. Very nice knife, definitely a user, needs a backup!
