I use mine as a pocket fixed blade when I'm working in the yard. Easy to carry, and has a really comfortable handle that fills the hand. The intent of the square corners on the back of the blade was for using with fire steels. I don't use it for that, but I haven't found it necessary to round the corners, either. But I imagine that if used for woodworking you might want to.
I've used my for trimming plants, cutting twine, opening boxes, cutting garden hose, trimming stakes for plants. I agree that the heat treat on the steel is good. The knife came with a microbevel on the edge and I pretty much maintain it that way.
