Do any of you compete in, or follow Extreme Bladesports Competition?

Big, fat guys chopping stuff. I like it.

Not just big fat guys...Jo the Machinist was competing for a while (not sure if she's still actively doing so)

I can see the shape of their knives, but I want to know the steel and the grind.
