My Beating Heart Has Arrived!

It would work for batoning and an overall great camp knife. But if batoning would be the primary function I would get one of the .320 thick HHFSH knives. That has much more of a wedge profile. The Beating Heart is only .210 thick.

Just my humble opinion.
But remember we are talking about knives that can be pounded through a piece of rebar. The Beating Heart will work.

Thx so much for replying! I agree a thicker spine gets that wedge going!
Another reason I like Beating Heart is the weight at 20.5 once's. Could easily serve as a belt knive! Pretty versatile.
