Thanks to White Mountain Knives for outstanding service. No tax, no shipping and a 10% discount (Beez10) enables me to continue building my knife collection even in the ridiculous Biden economy. This Kubey EDC looks great, feels great and is super slicy. It is great for food prep. Ergos are superb. The stonewashed blade showed wear immediately, however I personally thought it gave the knife a cool battle worn look. I would highly recommend. I've been impressed with Kubey so far (this is my 2nd one and WMKs is shipping my 3rd order today). The action is terrific and deploys with a satisfying "thwack" sound and feel. I think folks are going to enjoy this budget EDC. Great value.
