I wish I had your kind of courage bro. I don't know if I can be so cruel as to punish my blades. Then again, I would probably end up doing most of those "tests" because that's what camp blades are for.

My RD7 has taken a beating, literally. Warped the edge on a knot while batoning it with a cold steel trailhawk (forgot to use wood.) The edge was wavy so I took the trailhawk to it and surprise surprise still looking good!
