Or, maybe it would sound better if I called this a field tested knife. Folks will sometimes ask "how do you test your knives" and I usually use my smart aleck answer "I take them hunting and fishing" (although I do cut paper, chopnails and break test pieces too). This knife went to Alaska with me last week and was used on several salmon and halibut and has been cleaned up and is still very sharp, although the scabbard shows a litte wear.

Flat grind with a very slight convex
