Recommendation? ~5" fixed & pointy

[Arathol]

How has the this one worked out for you? Keep a good edge?

Haven't had it a real long time but so far its proved to take and keep a decent edge as you would expect from 1095HC. I've been chopping 2-3" bittersweet vines with it and it fared well, it still slices up fresh chicken tenderloins cleanly without dragging or tearing. Really liking this blade shape a lot, along with its smaller Cavelore sibling. I like the handle shape on these also, substantial but easy to keep a good solid grip on it.
