From the looks of that blade, it doesn't appear to have been used....thats blade abuse! I am calling Eric!

seriously, dude, that better be an old pic from when you first got it, or i will have to confiscate it. there's a statute of limitations on blade coatings...
Yeah, that’s when I first got it. I try to be careful with it and not beat on it too much (my only one that I’m careful with) because it’s my EDC and I want it to looks nice and not too beat up. Especially since I show it off to people to advertise for the Swamp. And it’s the old logo style that I prefer. It’s not mint, I’ve used it a few times splitting fatwood and it scared up the crinkle coat some. The rest of my Rats though, I beat on with no mercy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

dang Andy, how many howlers do you have??!! ever hear of SHARING? you could sell me one, and still have one for each hand. hmmm? something to think about, ya?
Actually, I only have one. The last time I went to the 1500 I bought a couple extra, (you’ve probably seen the pics) but I eBayed them for more knife money shortly after I got them. Here's a pic of my current total collection.

I never heard of anyone wearing a phonebook for protection...how about a more realistic test?
If you’d like. I just meant that as a test that could easily be replicated by people in their own home to show how a pointy-er knife will get better penetration.
