This scrapper 5 has been to hell and back it took a heavy beating for years. The first time the res-c mudder handle was damaged was from me throwing it and then throwing another knife that stuck in the handle, i was able to use a lighter to melt the rubber and mash it back together with very little noticeable damage. I managed to beat the sh@# out of it daily using it as a all purpose tool with little effect other than some scratches and nicks in the res-c until the day it fell in a burn pile. I was chopping some branches off a tree in the rain and it slipped out of my hand and flew right into the bonfire deep in the coals. Burned 3 fingers pretty bad trying to get it out before grabbing a shovel to save my hand. At first I was devastated it was covered in charcoal and debris but after cleaning it up, cutting off melted chunks and remolding it a little bit it is back in action with character.
To answer your question about its durability, it is pretty tough in my experience. Not likely that you will damage it much with normal use and cuts in it are easily repaired with a lighter to soften and reform the rubber.
