You know how when you want something real bad and it takes a long time too get it, and then when you do get it in hand it just cant possibly live up to your expectations or the magical pedestal your mind had placed it on?
This is not one of those times!

This knife is everything I had hoped it would be. The extra thickness over the DEK1 makes it perfect for my hand. This thing feels indestructible and thats exactly what an idiot like me needs.
Its the perfect size for my mostly urban adventures without the feeling I would be under knifed on a 3 day hike.
I am just elated with this thing.
