Like JDS said it has been quiet around here!?
Question for everybody

Why is the new mistress-e a big Steel heartII? I was thinking of an ergo grip, 9.5 inches of infi and a CLIP point.
Dont get me wrong I love the Busse drop point, but the clip point is my favorite! Maybe the clip point has become a "Basic" thing?

------------------
It is all Greek to me
 
I am also a big fan of the old Mistress slight clip point. Maybe the change is because the spear point is stronger?
 
Hi guys,
Let me fill you in. The reason Jerry decided to go ahead and make the Mistress into a long Steel Heart is that the point of drag time on the penetration of the old Mistress was not up to the standards of the (ASFKT) American Standards For Knife Testing. The set standard for a performance blade is somewhere between 0.95 and 1.05 on the co- efficient factor. The Battle Mistress was pulling in consistent 1.18 so they decided to up the penetration to a soild 0.87 like the Steel Heart. Well there it is. Naw... I really have no idea.
