Chris Reeve Umnumzaan, my first 400 dollar knife that feels like a 400 dollar knife.

Have to admit, I'm a bit on the fence with this one. On one hand, the fit and finish are undeniably perfect and CRK knives have always had good ergos for me. On the other, I hate the sandblasted finish of the titanium as it seems to scuff MUCH more easily than a ceramic bead blast finish. Can't speak much on edge retention, as I doubt I use my knives hard enough to notice it even on cutting cardboard. Though I wonder if I could buy one and have the handles hard coated with TiAlN or something similar.
 
The Zaan is the by far my favorite blade, when i first bought mine brand new, i had a choice the Zaan or the Sebenza, The Zaan just caught my eye...wicked blade, wouldnt mind purchasing the tanto version...
