Full flat sliceyness and blue micarta see-eeness....
I took this to the woods immediately to use for small to medium branch takedown for carving purposes. It fits snug in my slightly larger than average hands comfortably and invited pushing the limits during takedown without ever threatening to slip. A large Sand Hill Crane squawked at me from the left but when I turned toward him he was all like "Hey cool knife." and I was all like yeah man thanks it's blue so when I drop it I can locate it easily. Also it' slices with this full flat grind. All of these things happened. I like the original digger but this feels more "field capable" for the times when I need to prioritize functionality over (small, concealable) form.
