DLKG, I have one question...

The K110 is basically a brand name D2 steel.  Nice high quality but still D2.  I know D2 is very dependent upon a very controlled heat treat.  Have you been able to use this much to determine if the heat treat is a good one?

I am serious looking at a PF Victor which also uses the K110.  Can be good with a good heat treat...  Looking for your insight

Thanks, Kevin!  Petrified Fish has proven to be, in my experience at least, an especially solid knife manufacturer, at least in the budget category.  This one threw me off because I bought it second-hand, & the dimensions for the full-sized version were provided, so I thought I was getting the original 949, not the 949x -- the "x" here indicating "mini" in the Petrified Fish repertoire.  It's still a nice little knife -- but special emphasis on the "little".  :[

I have liked most of the offerings I have seen from Petrified Fish, but I have yet to get any.

Good looking group of them!
