For what purpose would you destroy your knife; can you generate 750 lbs of force on the knife blade/axis lock with it in your hand?

You know, I once shot an elephant in my Pajamas, how it got there I'll never know.

You'll need more than a vice. Watch one of the Tri-Ad lock equipped knife demonstration videos and you'll see a jig that more positively holds the blade.

I just tested mine at 300 lbs and it broke. So the correct answer is less than 300 lbs.

Tested what? How did you do it? Where did you apply the weight? What broke? Where are the pics/ vid?
