It's not bad for $2, but I'm easily impressed. Like I said: It's a
good picnic knife. If it's lost (hubby lost one of my expensive
paring knives and I'm still mad about that), no loss. I'll give it a
few swipes on the whetstone today and see if I can sharpen it up a
bit.

I didn't see any paring knives, but would have bought one if I saw it.
I need to find a larger store. The one near me is just a basic No
Name hole in the wall type dollar (plus) store.
