I've had an itch for a small edc and was dying for a Busse AD. It wasn't in the cards and after buying my dad a Bark River Bumble Bee, I started looking at them harder. I just scored this lightly used Imp. It's a stout blade and the convex edge is sweet! I haven't used it much yet, but looks and feels great!

How much taper has the swedge got? It's an interesting profile, and looks like a very usable small knife

It tapers right down thin, but the tip looks tough enough for abuse if needed. My first knife with a convex edge...wow!
 
thanks! I need to flesh it out some more soon, too.

I like the idea of the swedge on a knife that size. Looks like a good way to work on the tip angles. I may have to try that.

Convex edges are sweet. JRE sells a strop bat.....
 
The IMP is a great little knife! I've got one, and it's my winter-time EDC. Congrats on a great score!
