How is the edge holding ability of the Talonite blade?
Does it have a strong lockup?
How easy is it to sharpen on a Spyderco Sharpmaker?

I'm looking to trade for one, if interested look in the knives for trade forum.
 
I have an EDC and two Talons - all in talonite. I think talonite is a good blade material. :)

The EDC seems like a very strong knife, but I'm not certain. I haven't used mine very much yet (just to cut twine and etc around the farm), but I recently noticed that the blade was off center to the point that it was scraping the side when closing. Doesn't affect function, but bugs me big time. I plan to email Will about that and see if he has any advice. I have no idea what could have caused that as I haven't abused, pried, or anything of the sorts. :(

The knife sharpens easily enough. I haven't tried it on a sharpmaker, but you should be able to maintain it shaving sharp easily enough. :)

Overall, I think it is a good knife. I would be much more enthusiastic if not for that one concern.
