I'd say he will be happy. What steel is the blade?

Thanks, Lin. The blade is CPM154 stainless, 5/32 thick. The bolster is stainless. I did the blade and bolster with a satin finish.

Very Nice. Easy to maintain.

Hopefully it won't show scratches as easily, and will be easy to touch up if it does. The CPM154 holds a nice edge for a stainless steel too.

i said this on the other thread, but this is one of the coolest knives i've ever seen.

Thanks John. But there are a lot of really great knife makers here. I really like Lin Rhea's knives. They are tops in my book.
