has anyone used a Tenacious much yet?

[Aimless]

I'm not that knowledgeable about the various kinds of steels, but I noticed my Tenacious was kind of poking along cutting up boxes this afternoon. Only took a few minutes with the sharpmaker to get it back in action. I've kind of beat this one up, used it to trim pine branches and other nonsense, but it seems to hold up well and I like the shape and size.

The one downside is if I grip it just right I can sort of partially disengage the lock.

I use mine a TON at work (cable installer) to cut cardboard, plastic, zipties, the outer layers of Coaxial, Cat5, occasionally Drywall, small branches and brush...

it holds an edge ok, but sharpens up SOOO fast, it's not a big deal, I can get my SE back to shaving sharp in less than 20 passes.

it's a great beater knife, and I'm sure I could choke up on it enough to partially disengage it as well, although it would be tough to do during actual normal use.
