Well...he is concerned about the gring being off on a production knife by a minute amount, so I guess I shouldn't have been so blunt.
Claude, it MAY round, and it may break. That can happen with any knife if clumsily sharpened or abused
But, no knife in history has been more clumsily sharpened or abused in actual than that Kabar, so everything will be OK
But, if you find the defect too worrying, sending the knife back is OK too .
thanks for the advice and now i feel like a d*** for my vituperative replies - i will erase them - much appreciation - claude

I asked a legitimate question about your lack of manners in a debate. Obviously you don't know how to respond back in an intelligent manner.
Age is but a number, kid. I've met 10 year old kids, and I've met 45 year old kids too
Well that escalated quickly.
Well, now, no need to feel bad. You were upset, and expressed your feelings and that's OK too.
Enjoy your knife.

i wasn't the one who commenced the mud slinging - had my actual question and posts been replied to, rather than an imaginary fact pattern in an indignant manner, manners would not have been an issue - i actually am a 45 year old kid, but for different reasons that you cite -

thanks, for the advice and well wishes as to the knife -
as to being upset, though, that's hilarious - my replies were not an expression of feelings - ain't nobody got no time for that - they were pointing out your initial replies were ridiculously off point as to the actual issue, in a befitting and suitable manner - no butt hurt - sorry - but if it makes you feel better to think so, then by all means, lhave fun with that - lol -

i did the same - deleted -
btw, i'm keeping it, as i had mentioned at the inception of this thread, and throughout - i was only going to return it if y'alls told me the defect in question would undermine the structural integrity - the consensus, is no, it won't make a difference - hence, it's a keeper, which should have been evident to anyone who actually read through this, as i mentioned several times it did not bother me from an aesthetic or general satisfaction standpoint and in fact am quite pleased - cheers -

Nothing pisses me off more than piss poor quality control issues.. I would of sent it back immediately.
hahaa - damn it - where were you an hour ago ? i just skinned a deer with it and the point is now bent- too late -
j/k - but seriously - i would only send it back if it were to affect performance or structural integrity, considering it's a $94 (from the rip off store for which i had a gift certificate) production knife, it is bound to have one or more imperfections - aesthetics and general principle are not important to me, as to a $94 production knife that will be put to hard use immediately - if it were a $1,000 knife i purchased as a collectible, then hell fucking yes, i'd be sending it back -
