I just got a GEC #15 Huckleberry Boy's Knife.

Both blades arrived pretty dull.

I'm used to Spyderco blades and they arrive hair shaving sharp. The #15 took a substantial amount of time to resharpen. It took a great edge, but I was surprised.

A fluke or some type of bonding requirement?

Okay. I thought it was strange. Is there a reason behind it?
