The knives come in sharp and ready to use. So far, after 3 months, I have two awesome knives and a third that is kinda lame. Poorly styled handle and generally unattractive. Functionally the quality is there. It’s on par with the first two. However, the design is lame. It’s going end up in the bottom of my truck tool bag as a backup.
Regardless, I’m going to stick with the subscription because it’s fun and the quality of the knives are definitely as advertised.
