This knife is excellent in fit, workmanship and finish. The photographs do not do it Justice. It look plain in the photographs but it's NOT. This knife is as good or better than a $400 dollar knife. Put your best knife up to this knife and it will preform as good Or better~! Shocked by it's Quality and Sharpness.
Protect your hands with a safety gloves when using this knife due to it's extreme sharpness. Best knife I have purchased so far. Very Pleased.
