I posted in the Gear Forum but this may be more appropriate.

Well, I am awfully excited. Three weeks to my trip, getting a new canoe Friday, and now this! I know a guy in Connecticut that makes custom knives. Him and I designed this beauty together and it is done. He is mailing it out tomorrow!

Specs: Satin finished, stainless steel blade. It is cryogenically treated for edgeholding and is 10-1/4" overall. The blade length is 4-1/2" with partial false edge and thumb grooves. The handle is Silver Twill Carbon Fiber and raised stainless steel rivets.

That sure is a great looking knife. If I invested in a knife like that I would be afraid of using it.

That looks amazing! Congrats on the new purchase.

What exactly does cryogenically treating mean?
