S7 is one of the strongest steels you can make a knife out of and for some reason all the knives are so [censored] thick they don't cut very well.
Get a running start.
I would realy like a nice thin Hookguard that would be a lot better of a cutter and much faster in the hand as a fighter.
Grow stronger.
