How's the edge on your SAR5?

It's sharp and a good overall grind, but I just tested it, and it isn't shaving sharp yet, at least not by my estimation. I've sharpened a lot of Busses, and this one, given its current state (straight from the Busse Shop), would be shaving hairs after only a few minutes on a Sharpmaker. If anyone wants it sharpened before I send the knife, I'd be happy to do so.

Edited to add: I should note too that the scales on the SAR5 have been oiled with a little mineral oil. They just look better like that IMO. They'll darken naturally over time with use, or you can occasionally just put a little oil on them. If you like the lighter micarta color, a quick scrub with hot soapy water will lighten them up.
