Any reviews on the Barrakuda?

[Shotgun]

I'm looking at maybe picking up the 6" blade version. Anyone use theirs and could give any feedback on it? Looking at it in a hiking, camping, fishing, food prep, and maybe even self defense type blade.

Edit: Also, how would it work as a boning knife. Seems a lot more like a boning knife then a filet knife but IDK, never used either kind much.

This is the one I'm looking at. Orange goodness.

Specs:

•OAL: 11"
•Blade: 6"
•Blade Thickness: .10"
•Steel: 12c27 @ 57-58
•Full Flat Grind - Semi-Flexible

I haven't ever had a real use for a fillet knife, but this would make an excellent boning knife.

My wife has her eye on one.

Reminds me of a story....

I received a call about a year or so ago. I answered the phone and without intro or anything, the 75 year old voice said with a deep southern drawl, "Do you have a boner?"

I just about choked.
