This knife would be utterly gorgeous, if not for the utterly tacky 1/2" tall by 1 1/2" wide "L.L. Bean" laser-monogrammed half the length of one side of the blade. The logo is so egregious that it is blatantly omitted from the online product image. If it had appeared, I would have been spared the trouble of ordering and now returning this otherwise fantastic knife.
Seriously Bean, the understated and classy LL Bean stamped on the leather sheath wasn't enough? I don't need the additional marketing, I already bought the product!
So disappointed to see an otherwise great product offering ruined by overzealous marketing and brand placement.
