i really enjoy a nice knife, i have a block full of wusthof, great knifes! but i also like specialty knifes, and do alot of bbq`ing, barrel, weber, all briquets, and wood, no gas! this knife is dangerously sharp, (in a good way) glides easlily thru ribs, tri-tip, etc, and looks good doing it, i bought 2, and gave one to a buddy of mine, as payback for a bottle of sinatra jack daniels, that he gave me for christmas, another great product! he liked it so much, he`s having another one of our buddys...
