It's not that the Rambo knives are totally useless. Yes the steel is 420J2 and the partial tang ones are weak. They can do some chores and are better than nothing. But they just do not compare in toughness or chopping power to the DF or any Busse-made big knife. Be sure and do some heavy baton work on hard wood. That should be interesting. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
