Disappointing
Purchased on a whim, and the price is great. However, the knife leaves a lot to be desired.
The good: the design is great. Minimalist, simple, and effective. The sheath fit is perfect. And even with my very large hands, the shape allows for a secure grip.
The bad: the factory edge is *horrible*. Couldn't cut paper out of the box. That's very bad. Sharpening it was difficult; the steel likes to burr too easily. For a blade with a double curve, that makes for a time consuming and difficult sharpen.
As a secondary issue, the acheron shows up in searches for a neck knife. And it is the right size. However, the holes in the sheath won't fit standard 550 paracord. This isn't necessarily a flaw; thinner cording means less bulk during carry to irritate the neck. But you'll likely need to find smaller cording if you don't have some already.
