That looks like a Great carry Steve! 😍 A nice Carbon steel Lock-back that sharpens to a scalpel I bet!

Thanks.
It does get "sharp".
I keep its (and 98% of my other knives) blade edge(s) set to 10 degrees per side (20 degrees inclusive). Just a little "duller" than a straight razor (roughly 8 degrees per side/16 degrees inclusive.)

In the 65 years I've been carrying a knife I've never had an edge chip.
Stropping usually refreshes the edge when needed, extending the blade life since a stone is not required every time it needs sharpened.

Jose it looks like you have amassed quite the collection of German Knives, with your Puma Lockbacks and Barlows you have shared with us- very cool!
