Here Is The ST RIPPER Pic!!!! . . . .(Cool Pic)

Don't bad mouth toothless strippers, they have it hard enough as it is. You should check out some of the T-shirts at tshirthell.com . THere is one with a stripper on a pole that says "I support single Moms". Hilarious, and it would probably go over well in Vegas.

Now, back to the knife. Honestly, if I were to design a blade it would look a whole lot like that one. I think it's great, and a practical field knife at that. One question for you long time blade enthusiasts, would there be a structural disadvantage to sharpening the false edge along the top? I know alot of fighters like a single edge because for certain things its nice to be able to reinforce the blade with your off hand. It is also a heel of alot easier to cut yourself with a double edge, but are there any reasons other than that to leave the top edge dulled? Just wondering, and waiting, and drinking...

Wouldn't that make it a "Toothless STRipper" ???:eek: :eek: :D

I knew a woman like that once, or was twice?


And for those that know my Mrs, it wasn't her, so don't get me in trouble going there!!

No, there is no structural reason. If you have a false edge it doesn't matter if it's sharpened or not structurally. Now there would be a large difference between no False edge and False edge strength. But with INFI(and other steels like S7 and L6) I really don't think even that makes a difference on a 3/16 saber ground knife or a 1/4 inch flat ground knife. :thumbup:
