    I have one of those waiting for me in the shop, if I ever get the time. It seems like a really nice blade, but I'm not an expert by any stretch.

    I'm no metal expert but the folks I know that have bought the Atlanta Cutlery blades say that they do not keep an edge well.

    Personally, if I'm going to buy a knife like this I want the best steel so I'm not sharpening it every day.

    I love the Damascus look but would love to have that with a bottle opener.

    I also really like something like this without the crest

    take a look at this site
    http://www.sheffieldknives.co.uk/aca...sh_Knives.html
    They don't list them but if you ask They will sell just the sgian blade
    they have them in high carbon as well as stainless
    I've dealt with them twice and they are good people to deal with
    I got 10 high carbon sgian blades last year from them for $10.00 apiece

    this what they look like after I put handles on them
