Thanks everyone.
The Buck is a really cool knife.
It's very lightweight, but works well for smaller chores.
I've had it all my belt all day. You don't even notice it being there.
Ed also sent a bonus knife. Dexter S104 paring knife. It looks like it will be handy in the kitchen.
Especially peeling potatoes and my wife loves mashed potatoes!
Thanks Ed for two useful knives.

Double congrats.

It was my pleasure David.
