I only have one quick question before I order this knife. I would all your opinions on it for one and please do tell me. Does the blade have a bevel or is it just straight up flat ground. I have read conflicting answers on that and Ik I can get the answer. Thanks much
 
Maybe you are not getting answers because you are using words incorrectly in your question. A flat ground knife has a bevel. It not an either/or thing.

From a quick GIS it appears thst the grind does not extend all the way to the spine, which makes the knife a saber grind. (Not a full grind.) It is not a zero ground saber becase it has an edge grind/bevel. If it didn't it would be stupid to coat it, because you would take the coating off the first time you sharpened it.
