ASH1 can sure cut!!!

[Bill Siegle]

Took my ASH1 out today to the woods. After some target practice I did some cutting on some Alder saplings. WOW!!! This little fella can sure cut! Went through most stuff in one swipe The handle was comfy too with no "pinky bite" experianced. I did sharpen the edge before the woods though. I did not have to change the geometry on this one though Just ran it over a fine Sharpmaker stone and then a light strop to give it a little more bite than the polished factory edge. I didn't want to thin the forest too much but I did get through a few 1.5in saplings in one swipe. That will make anyone smile

Good to here she stood tall against the saplings I think I speak for everyone when I say ..... we can't wait till this hits the regular production cycle.

I am hoping Jerry uses the same blade geometry on the Combat Grade as he used on the SE. If so it'll be an awesome knife. If not....well get out the stones and fix it
