All this knife - or any knife - does is cut stuff. Putting a zip tie on an $850 knife is no more wacky than buying an $850 knife to begin with. Both are pretty darn kooky. What I'm saying is that once you go above the price of an Endura (or whatever), it is no longer about just cutting stuff. Its about distracting your brain from the demons that live in there. Its about feeling awesome. And grinding and zipping a spendy knife make CM feel totally awesome.
Very nice explanation that applies to a good number of things or people. I like that.
