I bought new Superedge ,seemed of good quality,as cold steel always has been,cut few boxes without staples,and noticed big chip at the tip and edge....probably bad ht from grinding or whatever.Sent it back...and am planing to get other one.Its my first cold steel knife that this happened to,after light or no use at all!Any similar experiences?
