Case XX Sodbuster (~2005 vintage) in chrome-vanadium.
I recently went down the rabbit hole on sharpening -- I've struggled with freehand sharpening my whole life and finally decided I was going to learn how to do it if it was the last thing I do. Dug out all my knives to practice sharpening, and I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of it! (This site has turned up in many of my searches, and been very helpful, so thank you. I just joined yesterday.)
Anyway, this Sodbuster had been sitting in a drawer for probably 15 years after I took it saltwater fishing and it rusted out real bad. Put it on the belt sander to take off the barnacles and scale, then took it to my Norton India alox combo stone, DMT diamond plates, Spyderco medium ceramic and strop...and with very little time or effort, I got it to be scary sharp. Not pretty but my Lord does it cut, and it's easy to sharpen and holds an edge fairly well for what it is. Plus, unlike my unobtainium Spydercos, I'm not hesitant to actually use it.

My bride and I had an incredible wedding surrounded by all those we love, it was such a joyous celebration that everyone who attended said they really enjoyed.
We made it to our honeymoon destination here in Saint Lucia yesterday and I have this trusty Pioneer SAK with me to cut up my cigars. Cheers everyone
