That's what makes this forum so great. Gestures like this are contagious around here.

Congrats on the replacement, and a big hearty thanks the the brother who spread the good will.

Are you sure it isn't defective? I see a line running down the middle of the blade! Heh heh!

Isn't it amazing what rotten, no-good, knife carrying deviates do sometimes?
