Oh you betcha! I rotohammered and pounded bolts into the floor. More worried about my son messing with it and tipping over on him then it getting stolen!

It's such a clean design. There's nothing extra or unnecessary about it. If I had to pick only one EDC knife this would be it.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Got two projects done last night: bronze ti scale on the Eklipse, and put my own edge on the Zaan and removed the lanyard. I'm super happy with both - major improvements! Also, I figured out the trick to flicking the Zaan open, and now it's smooth as silk to flick open. Just have to pop the stud at the right angle.

They do look awesome! A little slick, though. If a textured one comes in stock I might switch. We'll see, I'll live with this one a while first.
I took my Zaan to 17dps like you did - omg, what a difference! I'm definitely going to do my others, too.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Yea because it's a fairly soft steel, as I'm sure you noticed with how quickly it sharpened away...I figured I'd play it safe at 17dps for now, go lower if I feel the need to. But, it's definitely a noticeable difference as is :) I've got to do the same with my small 31 now. I've been sharpening madman lately though, I'm ready for a little break after I give this M4 Para 3 some work at the end of the week.

Looks great! I did 17dps on mine as well a while back. Most of my CRKs are 15-17dps, never was a fan of the convex edge on a blade like this.

With the right light, you can get some awesome pics.
That turned out so good. Congratulations.
