Absolutely stunning blade, exactly what i needed, I've never had a more comfortable grip, even in reverse grip so i can draw the wood through the blade, solid construction. Only issue was there was a slight low spot of both sides of the blade from grinding, i fixed it with a little reprofiling on a 400 grit stone. Sheath is well enough made goes well with the belt hanger i also have from Casstrom, if i was to nit pick there it a bit of overlap from one side of the sheath to the other could be fixed with a little grind around where they meet on perimeter of the sheath but that is an absolute nitpick, you cannot get better for this price, i will definitely remain a customer of Casstrom.
