Thought you were going back to the truck, Spence?

If you do carry thru with this passaround, I'd like to get in.

If any passaround stays alive, I hope it's this one.

It's not from cktg.

If you want specs on this you have to go to knivesandstones website.

Ok so, we've got bigwooly, cutu and jbart thus far. Anyone else want in. This is the last chance. I'm planning on packaging tonight.

I am back in the kitchen, but I've got enough to still send this around.

Oh, and I have been using his for prep lately. I do not have to time to sharpen it, and whoever gets it first has the task of fixing the tip :( very small repair. Sorry I don't have time. Trying to do my best on many fronts right now. Anyone not want to be first?

McNelly is in. Still open to one more. I think this is a great knife and wouldn't mind getting more opinions on it for future owners. Let's start with McNelly, but send me you guys' shipping info to figure out a rotation.

One of my favorite aspects of passarounds is checking out others edges.

Spent my first shift with it, first impressions are startlingly impressive. It's a quirky knife, my full review might get long. Long story short, it's most definitely a Tanaka... I'll get to more in due time, thanks again, spence, this ones more fun than I thought it'd be.

Edit, yeah that orders good with me, I'll be able to ship next Monday and I'll pm for an address.
