Fallkniven F1 3G deformation problem

In my experience the Fallknivens are pretty hard and will chip if they come in contact with something fairly hard. You may have done something like hit mineral deposits in the wood or accidently bumped your knife into another knife. I bumped my F1 into my model 5 one time and chipped the blade in two different spots.

Just sharpen it and you should be good to go. If you continue to notice chipping with normal use then I would suspect a defective heat treat.

resharpen it a bit and it will be better
factory edges are good but after 1-2 sharpening sessions (even light) situations wil change
