the DMCGs at this point havent been used heavily as i havent had a task for them yet and im not breaking firewood into my apt to hack like one of the DDAWGS did on this forum, sorry! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

If you've never used them, how can you feel comfortable constantly claiming the DMCG is the best, toughest, most awesome-est blade in the universe?

Not trying to be a jerk, but I've seen you make some incredibly definitive statements about these knives, and I find it a little worrisome that you would make those claims without any actual experience putting them through their paces.


I batoned a mini uncle mojo through a hardened masonry nail embedded in a good sized log, then re-profiled and resharpened the edge, all within the first few days of getting the knife, and I STILL wouldn't want to make any huge, sweeping claims about it in comparison to other blades, other than to say I'm very impressed with the knife's performance to this point.

its simple. i made the claim because of the ergonomics of the knife and its composition. the size of the blade, its thickness, the length of the blade, its saber-grind, it penetrator tip, etc... no other knife SY has made can rival this in terms of what it was built for, so henceforth, i have stated its the toughest knife scrap yard has made. if you think that a person has to personally do something to make a claim then you are wrong. look at some of the things that have been done to this knife. i was full within logic and my right to claim that the .50 cal is the best weapon we use in Iraq for mechanized infantry operations... i havent been to Iraq and i just fired one this past summer, but the fact that i stated this about the 50 cal was STILL FACT prior to me firing it and void of me using it in Iraq. this same rationale is applicable to the DMCG in context of this discussion.

Hey Reconseed you've been a great sport with this thread buddy ,I'm only yanking your chain a little eh ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Being serious though I have had many knives which I've drooled over when holding and looking at them but when I've actually gone out into the sticks and tried cutting stuff they have really let me down ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />
It doesn't matter how great a knife looks, if it won't cut what needs cutting then it ain't worth squat and without giving them some field time you will never know !!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
