I gotta beat the hell outta of it some more. What appear to be scratches aren't even scratches, its just plant residue. Once I beat enough of the coating off it, i'll prolly try and give it a Satin finish. So it becomes a Satin Sabre EU Uncle Mofo (i'm not sure it gets much better than that).
It really is a great knife. Relatively light, but works great as a chopper, fast in the hand. I've handled regular mofo's and mojo's in the past, with the ergo-like handle, which were cool, but this EU handle rocks.
All that said, I gave up my baby, my CG FBM to get it. But, as they say, no regrets.
