...really it did and it stuck to me like green on the Grinch (which is better than it having been stuck in me).
It's a heavy duty fillet knife (you probably could fillet dragons with this one, small dragons anyhow). It has a 440C stainless steel blade, green Micarta handle and is 13" overall with a blade length of 8". A Kevin Johnson creation. Kevin Johnson was formerly of DNZ Trading Company but seemingly is now using the company name of Kuzach Knives LLC and a DKZ logo now instead of DNZ. I must say, I got an excellent price on it, much-much lower than the current sale price of $106.25. That makes me a happy camper or fisherman or butcher of dragons.
All the best,

I worked in a steel making factory, for 35 years. We made a LOT of 440C stainless, among dozens of others, of course. Even when you spilled it on the floor, if you got a thin piece, it could be sharper than heck. I remember a guy cut himself pretty bad once on a piece of scrap that come back from a customer. It was some kind of food service equipment knife blade, like from a machine for cutting dough or something. Actually, the man was from Vietnam, who had trained to be a helicopter pilot, but escaped at the end of the war to make it to America. He works in the Lab there now. He is a perfect picture of the American dream, a truly decent person, with an All American Family. I just have many memories that come back when ever someone mentions various types of steel. That is a beautiful knife you got, and it looks like you got a great deal. Congratulations.
Wound up putting it into our Christmas Eve Yankee swap game. My son won it. That was quite the coincidence since had I not decided to put it into the swap, he would have been gifted it anyway.
