He has, i believe, a penchant for Kershaw knives, and he has made a passing reference to the knife in a couple of his blogs without identifying it. Any one know enough about knives to describe it? Or is there someone close enought to the production to do so?

I knife he waves around frequently, while it appears similar to the Ken Onion Cyclone, has a very wavy, "Damascus steel-like" finish. Just wondering . . .

The objective, I believe, is to get the fingers out of the way. (This would not work well with the Japanese slicing style I use.) Fri Oct 26 22:36:55 -0700 2007 2923705 95291 Richard 16
