There's the rub though. The Great Hockey Mask is all about "pleasing the crowd" with little thought given to the mental shift effected by his single-minded assessment standard. He came in at BFC starving for attention, and his site, forum, etc. all facilitate and complement this desire.
Keep in mind too that one can like large, tough knives and still appreciate the delicacy of a well-crafted slipjoint or the utility of a Mora, etc. I'm sure I've used the phrase "hard use." A search shows that I also once (in 20K+ posts) used the phrase "bomb proof," but I did so in a specific context related to the impressionistic feel of a knife in hand.
The Great Hockey Mask, however, bludgeons knives and assesses them based almost solely on their ability to withstand over-the-top abuse. Seriously, is a Mora Clipper supposed to be a "hard use" knife?
Edited to add: Some people don't realize that some of the antagonism aimed at TGHM stems from how he behaved himself here at BFC. This behavior included annoying cries for attention, unethical demands on a knife company, and just an all-around juvenile mentality. Keep in mind that there are histories here that are connected to his reception. When he couldn't handle criticism, he went elsewhere and set up his dog-and-pony show. Now he just pops in and pipes up when his fanboys tip him off that his stunts are treated as stunts and not the tests he professes them to be.
