Originally from aiandomknives where it was discounted from 536 to 439 due to minor delam on the cladding line. I tried to highlight it in the images, but it's difficult to see--you can notice it a little more if you look up the pictures on the original aiandomknives listing. It isn't noticeable in practice, the knife is simply more of a workhorse than I prefer.
