Hello everyone. I have been reading the posts here for a while and finaly decided to join up. I had a ratweiler a while back and stupidly sold it on ebay. I just now ordered a scrap yard from the same place. I have a bit of a question that I am sure some of you dogs can help with. Is a dumpster mutt differentially tempered? I know the ratweiler is, and I respected the heck out of that knife. It was just too big for what I was using it for. Like many of you, I realy see a great community here on the Busse forums. Thanks for any help you can offer. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Welcome to the Yard JT. The DM is a great little knife. As MrP stated they are not differentially HT but HT'd through. I just got my first DM and it is a sweet little blade...It's going to be my hiking/backpacking knife. Enjoy the Yard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Welcome to the yard. As for the Dumpster Mutt, it is made of modified S7 steel, so it remains plenty tough when through tempered. But in in a knife that size, even in a more brittle steel, there is no need for differentially tempering it.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Just because you're right doesn't mean I'm wrong.
