I just picked up this knife.
Awesome
But that's what i expected as it's my 4th Ban Tang knife. Blue-black G10 looks great & it fits in my hand with ideal comfort. Perfect balance. For those who are not yet familiar with Ban's work, his blades are always S to the power of 3: Stupid Scary Sharp, The result of perfect Convex to Zero blade grinds, from heel to tip, be careful, it can cut you in a flash and it's painless.
Thanks Ban. You are The Man. Ban The Man for superb Cutting Knives.
