JrummerI think it's a trade off, you get the IKBS with a lower quality steel. Wouldn't we all love to see this with >S30V and Titanium handles! That would be a killer design. I agree with @dfwhite17 about preferring a straight edge though.
JrummerEh the stainless steel handles are just okay to me. The design and the IKBS is sweet! But the weight (because of the stainless handles) and the lower end steel is keeping me away. Plus it looks a little bit too much like the exclusive Crux I am waiting 5 months on lol.
