Great Knife that Really holds an edge
I'm 43 and live in the South. This is the best knife I've ever owned. I wanted a great bushcrafting knife and tool the costly plunge based on the manufacturer's "street cred" in the survival industry. I've never owned a 1095 blade, but I read the pros and cons. All I can say is that this knife is as sharp as the day bought it after using it to hack down many small trees for bushcrafting. I tell people about this knife whenever I get the chance. There's a French review on this site that I bothered to translate because I want the reasoning behind the 1 star review. I see that he had the "5" before and went with the larger 6 this time around. He must not have read the specs. The 5 definitely has a thicker blade. I could see that being annoying if you lived in France. I don't plan to use mine as a pry bar, so the 5 is plenty thick. and well made.
