Been holding on to this one for too long now, and a shop visitor dropped the handle and there is 2 small aesthetic dents/dings in the wood

Looking for feedback and overall thoughts on quality and improvement, so anyone who purchases this and give me feedback after 1/2 months of use will get a $25 refund for the help!

299g for a 147mm edge length blade? Really?

Can you post a choil shot head on?

 

[Salvatore Moretto]

Played around with balance with heavier materials to see what it would take to get the balance at the pinch grip on this style blade and what impact it might have on use
