Everything about this knife and related components was done exceptionally well.
One curious thing is that the knife came decently sharp with a fully convex secondary bevel. I went straight to the strop and soon enough it was good to go.
I only wish the handle were a wee bit longer, but otherwise this BBC is perfect. (And it remains to test the temper, but I expect that'll be spot on.) Should be a great fit for my son when he's older.
I love the chiruwa-style handle and the impressively meaty spine, yet it is small enough that I don't notice the weight on my belt. This knife will for sure be in my wilderness belt knife rotation alongside the Scrapyard SOD LE and the Gameskeeper (and I bet the edge-quenched BBC is tougher than the other two).
