BladeArt sold me a GenO Denning "C Model", a small, almost miniature, Loveless style fixed blade with a polished, hollow ground ATS-34 blade. The tapered tang is sandwiched between stag handles with thin red liners. It affords a very comfortable three and a half finger grip with the balance point between the first and second fingers. GenO also includes a fine pouch style belt sheath.

It hasn't eye catching angles, curves, or colors. It wouldn't be picked first from a dozen knife display, but it's as comfortable in the hand as a cat is in your lap.

The blade came very sharp. It'll be with me from now on opening boxes, slicing fruit, stripping wire, and doing other light work. It replaces a MT SOCOM MA which, since it's big and black and snackety sounding, elicited wide eyed comments from bystanders whenever it was deployed. The SOCOM also scraped my hand when I fished change out of my pocket. The Denning attracts little attention and is much less intimidating.

GenO is a superb craftsman and a true gentleman. Check out his knives, they're bargains.

If check out the Knife Reviews forums, you will find many positive posts about his knives. I've got 3 myself, all are great knives for the user or collector.
 
Yes sir, you are correct. GenO builds a hell of a knife for the money. Fit & finish is way beyond what you pay. Nice folks too. GenO doesn't seem to get the press he used to around here and that is really too bad. There are a lot of newer members here that would be well advised to check out his website. If you ever wonder what qualities a superbly crafted knife has that everyday knives lack, pick up a Denning and see for yourself. You won't be sorry and you won't believe how little it cost you for this experience.
 
Howdy There..!
Yes sir, if you have a Geno blade you have purchased one of the best you can buy. His eye for details and quality is one of the best, I think that he should be ranked with the best. I have one Geno and one that is on the way. Did some trading with Geno at the Blade and he is coming up with a surprise for the trade. Can't wait to see what he comes up with, I highly recommend his work to anyone. He's a great guy also.

Later "Possum":cool:

Amen. GenO and Cindy are a pleasure to deal with. And the knives aren't bad either!;) We're talking value W-A-Y beyond what you'll be spending.

(Cindy! Where the heck is my peach cobbler? I've called the Fed-Ex office twice already and the coffee is getting cold!);) ;) ;)
