It came, and its very cool. I thought I was buying a used one at $66, but it was NIB. The thing is so sharp it will make you bleed if you look at it cross eyed. It is the second sharpest knife I've ever bought. A Buck Zipper takes the prize for that and five deer later I still haven't felt the need to sharpen it, but then I only use that for skinning and gutting. This one might fall into that category as I'll probably use my el cheapos for cutting up cardboard and such. I think I'll reserve this one for SD carry. I wish Michael Janich were still around as I'd be curious to hear his input. But so far, it seems like a practical tool for someone who is not going to spend years studying knife-fu and just wants an idiot proof back up weapon.
