While I am a BIG fan of CV, don't sell the new Tru-Sharp stainless blades short, fellas! I have a recently-purchased 6344SS Medium Stockman I am carrying with Tru-Sharp blades. With the exception of the patina-issue, I can see no practical difference in the performance or edge-holding of this little jewel over any of my CV blades. That might be "heresy" to some, but it's true in my case...or is that "Case"...pun intended...Ha!
