Does anybody have this knife? I know Ontario's Spec line has a great rep, and I'm quite the fan of plain-jane 1095, but I've never owned any uncoated 1095, or any Ontario. Good heat treat? Uncharacteristically prone to rusting? Hows the handle? Looks like a nice full flat grind, so even with a thick spine I would imagine its quite the slicer.

So to anybody whom may have personal experience, good knife?
 
I have a Spec 8 in 1095 that has been very durable for over a year, the coating on the blade has the scratches you'd expect from daily use, no flaking. Light oil wipe has kept it ok between uses. Rubber-like handle comfortable with and without gloves on. I don't have a catalog handy to see the 21 though.
