jmccustomknives Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Sorry for the poor quality of the pic. All I had was my phone. So I make it a habit of doing the drop test on my rough use blades. A guy wanted a Saeux for hog hunting. This was a Nicholson specialty file with a soft back draw. I've done this to at least a thousand blades, first time this has happened. I cringed as the blade swayed back and forth, but it stuck with no damage. I think the HT is right. lol. Dropped on concrete from about 6ft. I know some don't like this test, for most blades it's a little much but I'd rather it break for me than the end user.
