Would be safe queen.
If I was the type to hide a knife away and not use it because it was so beautiful it would be this knife .. but I use my tools and have put this one through the ringer and she keeps coming back for more , k390 just eats cardboard for days first of all but what I really truly appreciate is the way it fits in my hand much fuller more comfortable then the sage or para 3 in my opinion and the compression lock works great , I'm guessing it would be the extra weight in the thick blade stock that tapers down with its full flat gride to a very fine sharp edge. Five stars all around, I bought it when it was over 200 and seeing it under 200 now I'm picking up a spare just to have in case or to pass down.
