Well, the BM330 Dec KOTM arrived today. My initial reaction when I opened the box was disappointment. From the photos I had seen of the December knife it was a very nice shade of blue. The knife I received was silver/gray and if you tilted it just the right way you could catch a glimpse of the blue color.
But I recovered. My knife collecting boss just happened to be in my office at the time and I called him over to see the knife. He was extremely impressed with it. He agreed that it was not blue. But he handled the knife for about 10 minutes and did whatever KnifeKnuts do when they get their hands on a new knife. So I felt better about the knife after seeing his reaction.
It is a very nice knife, and my HHBL is getting it for Christmas anyway. He doesn't know it was supposed to be a different color. Besides, I told him that if he doesn't like it, I am getting 8500 marriage proposals. He is already convinced that he is going to love his present!
I'll let you know what his reaction is after he opens it. Thanks for all your help.
