Accidental, and painful knife test..

[swede2207]

Was cleaning the scale off a freshly heat treated knife today with a 400 grit belt on the blademaster. Wasnt paying attention and it bit be. Cut me slightly, and smacked my right thumbnail hard enough to blood blister.
On to the test. The blade was thrown point first into the concrete,with minimal damage. In fact one pass on the grinder and you couldnt tell anything happened. So although painful, at least the blade was tough! Think ill pay a bit more attention next time..

well its good to know it will hold up atleast.... a small price to pay for being assured that you did some nice work.

I'll bet it was an un-planed test
