When someone asks “will it flex” (this is really a test piece that I broke to look at the grain structure, 90 degree bend before it broke.)
 
How do you like the 8670?
First time using it but it tested well, I cut half way into a nail without edge damage and it still sliced paper without hanging up in the area where the nail was cut. I used it because it was the only 1/16 inch stock available but I'm pleased with the results.
 
Got it, Logan7. I will get your knife out in the morning mail. Thank you!
