Thanks Shootist. Couldn't have asked for a better download. Where can I get one? Is AUS-8 a stainless variety? How does this blade take and hold its edge? I use Normark imports (such as the Marttini) fillet knives, mostly fish salt water, strippers, blues, mackerel, and I generally smoke fillets as a side line on this small island. Any way to pick up a few bucks. And now that I have a few extra, I am in the market for a few new knives. Thanks again.
