Hey OP, you chose a really nice knife there and I'm sure your dad would love it. But keep in mind that it'll need more/different maintenance vs other knives. If I could make a recommendation, check out Tojiro knives. They use a cobalt alloy steel split and while they get fantastically sharp you can also beat on them when you need to without worry. They make them in both western and Japanese style handles.
