It's made in US, so it should be not as cheap as Chinese stuff.

Yes, the spring on it is too stiff and is hard to operate. But it turns the knife into a sort of gym for hands, and after some time, opening and closing the knife one-handed becomes easy.

His edge retention "test" shows there's not that much difference, and a $40 knife is ok relatively to the more expensive one. But S30V is one of the main reasons why PM2 is more expensive, and this steel really makes a difference. In my experience, in terms of edge retention, any super steel is much better than a cheaper steel. While AUS8 dulls very fast from light use, CTS XHP, S30V, S35VN, M390 etc. take forever to dull. I have knives I never sharpened because they are still sharp.

They don't want Hamas to be eliminated. Russia is always for ceasefire when its side is loosing.
Casualties? Hamas wanted to kill as many citizens of Israel as possible, no matter of what nationality they were. Even tourists were killed. Casualties are about bad luck, but Hamas victims were murdered because of evil intention. They cannot be compared to Palestinian casualties in any way.

Infused coffee
How do you like infused coffee? On one hand, it has unusual flavors, on the other hand, those flavors are added. What is more important, experiencing an unusual taste or drinking good coffee instead of the flavored one?
