If the knife had been as pictured, it would get 5 stars. The Guardian (and the Mark I & II knives) has always been a nice knife, with classic 'sword-like' blade lines and extremely sharp. However, look at the knife in the picture, and imagine that someone has taken a grinder to it and ground the blade to where it now looks like a triangle, with straight lines from the hilt to the point and a ridiculously large and obtuse bevel instead of the acute and classy bevel of the original. Yuck. The only excuse to ever do this to a knife would be if you chipped the blade and had to reshape the blade to hide the fact (and then sell it at a garage sale for $5). Nowhere near worth the asking price. If you are a secret agent and want to use this for taking out one of the opposition, it might not make a difference, but if you just like knives and want one just to have one, find an older model; you'll be much happier.
