I'm going to have to start practising with this "crooked knife". My initual reaction to it (like Aloha's) was that it just didn't feel right in my hand. The hollowing out use seems logical. Now that I know what it is used for, I'll play with it and keep you updated. It is sharp, sharp, sharp...I can see where one could easily take a good part of a finger off before you could stop the pulling motion. The history lesson was cool too....thanks again boss! :)
