Your right that is a very beautiful knife. I know do to the fact I have some also.
The feel and balance is sweet. The steel feels smooth with no burs.
I have some of D'Holders Canal Street that will stand up to the same love you are giving yours. Perhaps that is one for you to check in to now that you have your frist D'Holder.

I am familiar with Canal Street and their products. In fact I have an Uncle who works with the folks at Canal Street.
I visited the Canal Street Booth at the 2009 SHOT Show in Orlando this year and I was very surprised to see and meet the infamous Mr. D'Alton Holder.

He was there to promote his work with Canal Street Cutlery. He's a great person and I admire his work.

I have made the same mistake many years ago.....just mentioned it so Mr. Alton would not be scratching his head and wondering where he went wrong.
