Curious if anyone is using their TNT-15s for any actual cutting work, and if so, what? I ask, because having owned it for a while now, I remain scared to chop, hack, slice, or stab with it. It's an odd sensation for me to have with a SYKCO blade, but that beefy spine that stair steps down to that REEEEEEEEALLY thin deeply hollow ground edge worries me that it's going to shatter if I let loose on anything more robust than blackberry brambles... It would make a great midrange combat weapon... assuming the other guy is out of bullets and doesn't have hours own sword or something stout like a hickory axe handle... Or am I too concerned over nothing? I'm totally comfortable swinging my MOAD on anything stupid enough to get it front of it, but that's a different game altogether... I've long wanted an indestructible Bussekin sword, because, hey, swords rock, they have reach, and they never run out of ammo ...never shoulda sold off my Swamp Rat Rodent Rucki. Add that to my long and growing list of mistakes....along with the pumpkin M9, Comp Finish BWM, Zilla, Bulldog Reg, Rat Mastiff, Mischief 4, Mud Mutt. Scrap Muk, DSFT, and I'm sure many, many others. Nice thing about life is so long as you're drawing breath, it's never too late to rectify those mistakes So tell me how I've got silly concerns. Show me your picks of the TNT 15 slicing open coconuts or rolled up katana mats,or chopping througha 6" diameter oak. Prove to me I kept the right sword, or at least one tough enough to get me through the Zombiepocalypse!!!!!! Pics or out didn't happen!!!!!

Yes Randy.... that's true, but..... Has no one used this blade? Or did I buy the only one?

I don’t use mine, just carry it around Walmart. It’s amazing how people leave you alone when they think you’re nuts!

I seem to remember Sasquatch doing a video where he uses a TNT 15 to cut up several items.

Why yes he did Tom. Actually that video is what convinced me to get one. Besides it looks cool in. A BB canvas mutant sheath with SYKCO JYD #105 stenciled on it

II've always wondered why no one talks to me....I just assumed they felt threatened by my natural musk. Now that you mention it, I suppose my "shopping outfit" might have SOMETHING to do with it...
