I can't say much that the others haven't already covered. The F1 is just a no nonsense, awesome freakin knife. It's been my primary belt knife for a couple of years now and there's really not a whole lot I can't get done with it. From bushcraft to camp chores to skinning game, the F1 can do it all. I haven't found any 4" knife that provides me the confidence that knife does. Like Hand of Cod, I loved the standard version so much that I purchased a blank to do my own custom. It's just one of those knives that everyone should try at least once. Congrats on the purchase and I hope it serves you as well as mine has.
