I don't carry this one much but decided to pocket it today. Don Morrow made this for me a few years ago. Nice WT with some of his excellent filework.

I have had this Henckels (Boker) Congress knife for a few years now. I bought several of them, and most are safe queens, but decided I would make this a user. I wanted to whittle with it when I first got it, but the blade geometry was way off. I spent a lot of time modifying it, and now it is one of my favorite knives, and a great whittler.

I also decided to serrate one of the redundant sheepsfoot blades to use as a utility and food knife (I mostly use it for harvesting and cutting fruit). It is pretty easy to serrate a blade with a round diamond sharpener and some patience. I get annoyed by redundant blade shapes on knives, but having one serrated makes it a perfect EDC.
I mostly carry USA made knives, but this knife has an amazing fit and finish. Blades are all very smooth, with solid half stops and great walk and talk, with no wobble whatsoever. I am pretty impressed by this knife.
