Spyderco Harpy

Hey guys...

Not sure if I posted this in the correct area...but I have a question. Do any of you have any experience with / or have owned a Spyderco Harpy?

I have a chance today to purchase a new one (not the SS handles, the carbon fiber handles)...I was wondering:

Is this a practical / useful carry knife?

The blade shape has me puzzled...good for anything other than pretending I'm Hannibal Lecter?

I know Spyderco makes a good product...I guess I'm trying to think this through and see if it's worth adding to my collection / edc knives, etc.

Scary looking knife.

It would be good for cutting rope/cord. If you do this a lot it would be a good investment. If not I would probably go for a different model with a more traditional blade. Unless you really like its looks. Your call.

Thanks, Nick..

Yeah, I think I'm gonna take a pass on this one.

Kind of a specialized knife/blade, I think. Geez...wicked sharp, though.
