I met Brad today to pick up a 275 Adamas today and am really liking the bulk of the knife. It was a decision between the adamas and a ZT350 but I like the manual opening and size of the Adamas a little better. After picking it up I had Nova 512 put a nice edge on it along with a Spyderco I had been wanting resharpened. It was my first experience seeing the wicked edge system first hand and it did not fail to live up to its name. Both of my knives are shaving sharp now and the Adamas is ready to be abused to put it through its paces. A good Easter present to myself if I say so and the boy never did need new shoes anyway
