Not worth to buy
I bought this knife because OCC 1-7/8" was out of stock. The edge was roughly sharpened. I think they used ~ 320 grit to sharpen it. There was a burr on edge, so I strop it. After that there are some chips still visible. The edge geometry has angle about 10 degrees and finish on 1 mm, so You can't cut deeply in wood. Comparing to my OCC knives which has angle finishing almost on spine. The blade in handle is fixed askew. I don't recommend buying this knife.
