well-built...
I like to read history, and Gen. Patton is someone I liked reading about when I was younger. Knives are my thing, so when I found this one, I had to check it out. At first, I didn't like it because it is really not that sharp. I like my more expensive knives to be scary sharp. I probably won't gut too many deer with my fancier knives but nonetheless, when I get them out of my hidey-hole, I like them to be really f-in sharp. So, after handling the M48 for a day, I decided to keep it because it is possibly the most well-built knife I have ever owned. The magnus tip is really cool too. Plus, it feels better in my hand than any other knife with a pocket clip. I really don't like pocket clips.
