I've purchased more Scrapyard knives than I can remember and only two of them have been poorly ground. One was the Mudpuppy and I will be darned if I'm giving that one back......It matches my JYD #, so I won't be parting with it anytime soon....I just touched it up myself and it's good as new.
The second was a Dog father CG It is bent left to right in the middle of the blade about 2 millimeters and it looks like a corkscrew was used as the sharpening guide for the tip......I had initially thought about sending it back, but reflected on the "Dan the Hack" story and decided to work on the problem myself.....couldn't fix the bend in the blade, but I have impressed myself with the job I did on taking the corkscrew out of the tip....got a real nice Competition grind on it now....slices through a bottle of water without knocking the bottom half of the bottle off the table. I also use this one to tame a rather large chunk of ironwood( when I need to relieve stress)
I'm actually glad I got these two knives....they have allowed me to feel more like apart of the family and build skills I never would have thought of trying before.
