My wife and I purchased some Cutco producuts mid-summer of 2009. One of these was this folding pocket knife. I chose the one with the Double-D edge.
Right after we moved into our new home in Aug '09, we naturally had a lot of cardboard boxes to get rid of. The first several boxes fell easily to this knife. But it didn't take too long at all for it to become a struggle to cut down the boxes.
I'm quite disappointed that I a) bought into the hype of Cutco...at least in THIS knife, b) due to the Double-D edge, I can't sharpen it myself, and c) that I didn't spend the same money on a Spyderco, Kershaw, or Benchmade product that'd probably use harder steel AND allow me to sharpen it myself.
The Good News, though, is that I believe it's a well-made knife and quite sturdy for a folder. Only just a HINT of blade wobble, even when trying to push/pull it through some thick cardboard.
I also enjoy the easy 1-handed opening capability and, despite it being a lock-back style handle, I can close it 1-handed too.
