overmodulated Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 ok picture size has been reduced (still nice and large though). the chopper works well - edge has plenty of hardness, but shouldn't chip. I only worked it hard for a few minutes on some dense wood, and it was like wielding an axe there's so much momentum behind it. I'm afraid that if I put a real sharp edge on it, it would wedge itself too deeply into the wood and I'd have to fight to remove it after every swing. but I'm loving this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragons lair Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Got one like that. Watch your fingers. Have nicked a few trimming or scliceing up pices for the fireplace, Ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin (the professor) Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 that should work well as a chopper. Personally, I wouldn't (and couldn't) have gotten that level of polish on a user-type knife. But, that's just preference (and lack of ability). The fit and finish are tight and the knife seems designed properly for its use, etc. thanks for showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
