FInally arrived today after a painful yet satisfying 2 week backorder. At $86 I am quite happy with it, I think it is worth far more but am extremely pleased with its budget price. It's great, it cuts it's balanced it's hefty, and the grib is perfect for my hands. But alas with every great thing comes a problem, I have no sharpening tool worthy or my new knife, so at some point quite soon I will be dropping around $150 for a DMT Fine/XFine 10" sharpener with stand. And possibly a 4000 or 8000 grit or anything capable of putting a clean polished edge on my nice blade. It's an excellent knife, I would say if you are looking for a large straight edge knife with some decent heft to it, that for the price you can't go wrong.
