This knife has it all. Carbon steel, strong, sharp spine and has a razors edge. When it comes to feather sticking, this is one of the best I have used. It bites into wood very well, even hardwood, without the edge glancing off or sliding. The handle is a nice size and thick enough to get a good grasp and do lots of work without hot spots and it big enough to give you very good leverage. The carbon steel gets scary sharp. Easy to take care of. Great sheath, many options for carry. Very well conceived knife.

I did not want to like this one to be honest.I have always felt that the Mora companion was more then enough. I feel you do not need a super knife,if you know what the hell your doing. I am from Alaska.I have carried a Mora 511 and a you as my main two belt knives. But a Brother gave me this knife as a gift,because he knew I be a Mora whore. I got the Tops sheath for it. And for about two years now,it has not left my side. My buddy Joe price will back me up on this one. Thank you Dave for making this knife available.
