Anyone break a PM2 tip?

Broke a tiny bit of tip off one of mine but same as most others, mine was the result of accidentally dropping it on a tile floor. Sharpened it out on diamond stones in about an hour. I have never done any damage to the tip in normal use and I use mine quite a bit.
 
Yep! Broke the tip off my PM2. Actually tried to upload a picture but couldn't. It's probably about 1mm. To be honest, now that it's broken I don't really mind it. I don't intend to jam my PM2 into anything (or anyone) but I think it's sharp enough to do damage if I ever found myself in a precarious situation and had to protect myself or somebody else. It broke...now I don't have to worry about it breaking :)
 
I didn't snap mine all the way off, but I did ding it by dropping it on the dreaded tile floor. That happened about 2 days after I got it. I was going to use it anyway, but I took that as a license to really put that knife to work, and it's held up remarkably well. Instead of trying to completely regrind it, I've worked it out over time, going over the tip repeatedly as I've sharpened the knife. I also had some minor chipping issues at first, but those are now a thing of the past as well. The knife is now smoother and sharper than when it came out of the box, and that's another reason to love the PM2.
