Great score they look like real Choppa's and your putting ole ulgy to the test. :thumbup: Good story to you been drink'in again brother.
Sounds like your feeling your oats! :D:D :thumbup:
 
so this is a really stupid question but what is the deal with the asymetrical edge? what is the benefit behind it?
 
I know it was self defense against the Pabst BR can:thumbup: Way to defend the hotel room:thumbup::D
 
"destroyed a hotel room" :eek: That's a story you have to tell. With pics. :D

re sheath. David Brown most likely has one, Mashed Cat, too. I know one is on it's way to steelnut.

From what I have heard, you get the benefits of a Convex edge for choppping, and edge strength.

Easy to maintain in the field. You can run it on a ceramic stick in the field, because of the v edge.

Also, one thing I tend to notice with Traditional V grinds, is sometimes when whittling, controlling the angle and depth of the cut, and tracking the cut straight is a bit easier with a V-edge, than with a convex.

I tend to find that for some reason making a straighter cut is easier with a V edge. Don't know why.

So the asymmetrical edge combines all these things. Easier to cut straight because the v edge is on the left side, chopps and had edge strength like a convex edge, and easier to field sharpen.

In a nut shell. Again, I have 0 experience using one. I use v grinds and convex ones, but never a hybrid yet.

thanks for the explanation, although it sounds interesting I am glad I got the standard edge on mine, the assymetrical thing kind of reminds me of chisel :barf: :D

Definitely not a chisel grind. The blade is ground like a normal blade. Only the very edge has the treatment. And one side is ground like a v grind, and the other is simply convexed.

From everything I have heard, it is nothing like a chisel grind performance Wise, none of the edge pushing, cutting straight issues.
