Offically made my Mnandi a user. I bought it to use on a daily basis and not baby to see how it holds up. When I got it the factory grind was off on one side making touch-ups on my Sharpmaker not possible. I marked it with black sharpie and found that it was steeper than 20 degrees per side. So, out came the Edge Pro for a reprofile down to 18 degrees per side. I did not put a mirror edge on it since I plan to use it. Took the reprofile to 600 grit only. From there I went through the sharpmaker stones at 20 degrees per side all the way to ultra fine. It is now so sharp that when I go to try and shave hair off my arm it digs right into the skin! Here's a couple of pictures. Kind of hard to get a good pic of the edge plus there is still sharpie remaining where I marked it for the final micro bevel check.

xjzhx, thank you for your service. Wishing you the best of luck and a safe return home.
I head out to basic training on May 1st. Im excited, yet nervous, but in the end, Im happy and honored to serve my country any way I can. Stay safe, stay sharp man.
i can't clip knives to my pocket in NYC, so most of my carry is done in pocket. i prefer tip down, right hand, but tip up isn't much of a problem. the 746 is looking better by the minute.

AFAIK both these logos occur. I guess the logo on my knife is associated with the early issue (2010).Did they move the Buck logo? On my vantage it's on the flat part of the grind.
