Was chopping some dry oak today with my DFLE. Took it realy easy cause I know oak can be hard and I have already broken 3 knives before (CS Bush Ranger, Linder Yukon Bowie, BJ Black Panga) and I love the DFLE! It´s an excellent knife <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

But then this happened...



This saturday sucks, alot!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Ouch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

I'm sure that would be covered under the warranty.. I would not sweat it.

Hey, rest assured the crew will take care of you.

I'm so sorry to see that, simon. It is an obvious defect in the steel. Contact Renee and get a new one.

That's the wonderful thing about SYKCO, although it rarely happens... if it does...Your Covered! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

S7 is not prone to shattering or chipping. There was a bubble in the stock that SY purchased. We have seen this before with a few DFs. I'm 99% sure that's what it is from looking at the close-up, but you'll need to return the knife so SY can examine it. They will do you right.

I have read about this happened and was thinking about it when I was chopping. Didn´t think it would happen to me today <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

Wow, that's an impressive failure. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

This is the piece of oak that I was chopping


I just say as Morbo does "I WILL DESTROY YOU!!!!" (been watching to much Futurama <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)
