I got one about a week ago. I think it's a great knife!No major trauma if you lose it. I think it's built really well for a $38.00 knife.It came razor sharp from the box.I haven't done any "testing" on it,but I have used it for "everyday" task's and plan to buy anotherone in the morning incase it gets discontinued or something like that , that seems to happen to all the good inexspensive knives I like.Buy one you'll really like it I M O.
