Hi Jim,
I sure do, I have one bought it from a fellow carver. It was to small for his hands as I recall. Just right for my hands and a nice little knife I use often.

Jim, I have that knife and I can tell you that it requires a lot of work to be usable. Even when you do put the time into it to get it sharp it is not a very comfortable knife to use. I see that it is on sale at Woodcraft right now and that is the price I payed for it. I guess in the end it is ok for the price but it is not one that I goto very often.

Hi Jim
I have the knife, as one of the guys said you have to really work on the blades to get your bevel right. You also have to be very careful when stropping, the blade will close on your finger.
