    Sharp and sharp.
    The quality of the handle and the blades are absolutely the best I've ever tried. The blades are super sharp and hard enough. The handle looks awesome and dense. The knife alone is the best precision knife I can name. But when it is not just knife alone it is a bit different. The knife came with a cap with it, and it is not the best cap. To be honest I've tried other precision knives with caps and those are terrible too. There isn't any trouble with how tight and protective not even the quality of it. But the design of the cap is not smart enough. The golden part of the handle where the grip patterns are is where the cap would apply the force on to keep itself tight. There is an issue with this design, that the plastic of the cap would worn out on it. After pushing the cap on tightly, the plastic would grind out as dusk staying on the handle. That wouldn't make the cap endurable or pleasant to use. Overall, the knife is a great knife, only the cap is the trouble with it.

      Very sharp and worked well for the task I had. However, be careful getting it out of the package. The protective plastic over the blade flew off upon opening, and I stabbed my thumb. It bled quite a bit... all over my sink, my shirt, my countertops. It looked like a mini massacre had taken place in my bathroom. My husband walked in and thought I had finally given in to my threats about our demon cat that attacks the walls at random while growling and hissing...until Fluffy McLucifer walked in and began to lick the blood that had dripped on the floor.
      While I do not recommend using this tool to harm any animals because that's just plain wrong, I strongly suggest putting it aside in your underground bunker to use as a weapon in case of a zombie apocalypse.

      Overall the product is of good quality and the blade was sharp and paper cutting experience was quite smooth. With in one week of use blade's sharpness was lowered though one still can use for straight line cuts. With the price range the pen is of high quality but expected longer life span. The delivery of knife took almost 20 days which is very strange.
