Interesting comparison. Can you determine how much of the performance gain was due to the DLC coating and it's lubricity through materials? I would venture a guess that the performance difference with this coating while cutting cardboard would be even greater

DLC isn't on the actual apex. So while it makes the whole blade slide more easily through the material it shouldn't influence what's happening on the edge and thus shouldn't affect wear resistance.

True, it will just affect how easily it moves through the media.

We're still working on the adamantium
I'm up for a set of claws, but the PAIN, that's one more dose of Neurontin??? LOL....I guess attitude is most of it. See what you get when you don't transplant a Canadian to the Louisiana swamps!!!
All jokes aside. I wonder how long it'll be before metallurgy even approaches a compound that versatile....
I seriously misguessed the number on this one, thaught they were slash cuts on hanging manilla rope
How about offering a Lawman up without the DLC coating
I would like this option. That model would compete as one of the best edc s available.
