It came impressive sharp, like razors edge sharp. The back of handle scales on one side had some small blemish. Unclear if it happened from the factory or a drop, that said not worth getting bent out of shape, I plan on using this knife. It is definitely well made clone. It’s not identical thickness, but the sheath and shape are quite close. Most importantly, given how sharp of an edge it came with, it makes me hopeful of a solid heat treatment to make a real good user/performer.
Very sharp knife.
