I was wondering if anyone owns one of these Buck NRG with the hawkbill and bottle opener. How do you like it? How sharp was the blade when you got it? How does the bottle opener work? From the pictures I have seen of the knife, the bottle opener doesn't look like it would work at all. I like the look of this knife and may want it for my keychain if the bottle opener works.
Thank you.
 
Yeah. I'm not too worried about edge retention on the knife as I would sharpen it as often as nessicary and have sharpmaker triangles from diamond to ultra-fine (recommended for recurve and serrated blades by the way). The main thing I am worried about is the bottle opener. I have a Leatherman Squirt and really like it except for the bottle opener. I was thinking of getting one of those Nrg keychains because I like the way it looks and the little hawkbill blade would be a compliment to the normal knife that I normally have on me and it would be cool to have a bottle opener because that is the main thing that I use on the Squirt that I carry.
