I neither love nor hate Emerson knives. I do (or have) owned several over the years since the late '90s. I really TRIED to like them as tools, but realized that other brands' knives worked better for me in that regard. I disagree that Emerson's chisel grinds (or V-grind chisel edges) are sharper than other blades, or that they're necessarily any easier to resharpen. They are what they are. For ME, the only V-or-hollow-grind, chisel-edged knives that serve my purposes well are full-SE Spydercos, because their chisel edges are far less steeply (obtusely) ground.
IMO, Emersons do feel nice in hand. But I've never found them to cut any better than (or even as well as) other brands' knives, like Spyderco, CRK, CS, Victorinox, etc. I also haven't found that they hold up any better (for my purposes) through use over time than others. In some ways quite the opposite, in fact.
