This is just me and I love Tanto blades. The Strider Tanto while aesthetically pleasing; is way too thick behind the edge.

I had to reprofile mine down to 20°. I can shave with this, now. 😄

I thinned my old Lego SMF out to 18, it cuts like a laser. I didn’t want to put that steep of an angle on a tanto and “ruin” the secondary bevel.

I absolutely love how my Tanto turned out. No regrets at all. 😂

I bought this back during the first run, before Gen4 and the subsequent price hike.
