Well, that Karabit was something special. It really looks like a meat hook. The people surrounding me are fairly used to knives and look at any new aquisition with interest and the Karambit scared most of them....heck, it scared me.

It Kris with is curvy lines should get a much different response. The only reason I have held off sofar, ist that there is really no way of sharpening this on a benchstone.

Yeah, you'll want a Sharpmaker. You can sharpen all kinds of weird stuff on a Sharpmaker.

Don't these have serial numbers near the hole? Or did you PS tht out for privacy reasons?

No PS. I don't know how many of this model they numbered, or where, but mine isn't numbered. I do have I think three numbered Spyderco knives but since I'm not in the collector's club they're all different numbers and don't really mean anything.
