My hook knife arrived from Axminster yesterday, only 3 weeks and a day after ordering it. Yes, THREE WEEKS. I'd nearly forgotten about the order. I think they had to have it made for me.
That said, when I took it out of the shrink wrapped plastic on card back, I noticed how blunt it is. When my Mora 840 arrived, it was very sharp. I've used it a lot and not needed to touch the edge yet.
The spine of the blade also has signs of the metal folding over from the sides onto the edge. I'm not very impressed with the blade when I compare it to my 840. Sure it's relatively cheap, but is it normal that these are shipped blunt?
IT IS SHARP - Please read my later post where I explain what a nub I was!
