i was batoning on top of a huge rock with my NMFBM...{which is the knife that guy had the problem with chopping bone}...and i blew through the wood and chopped strait down into the rock.i didnt even want to look because i knew it was going to be bad.the damage turned out to be so minor i could barely see it and could never photograph it.i was dumb founded but happy and relieved.

another time i was batoning through a 4in thick log with my CGDF and some measly little knot gave the edge the worse roll i have ever seen.the roll itself was almost an inch long.i cant even begin to explain the horrible things i have done to my DFLE including striking concrete and have never had a problem assuming it wasnt one with the air bubble problem but that doesnt count.i'm talking healthy SR77.

bottom line is i'm confused.

one day i look at a knife funny and it gets hurt and another day i commit gross atrocities to it and it laughs and it doesnt matter if we're talking INFI,SR77 or SR101,a;though i do have to admit i've had the best luck with SR101 so far.i love that rock hard,high carbon ball bearing steel
