Congrats on a great first purchase!
After the long thread asking for the B13 and it’s subsequent arrival (Thanks Boss), I feel like it fell on the community kind of flat based on how many went up for sale and lack of threads based around it.
However, I love this blade!

I ordered a Battle Grade initially based on color and thickness, then immediately jumped on the waiting list when I heard about the additional grinding they were putting the CG through.
The BGBB13 has been one of my most frequent users since I got it. I have about 5 acres and I have put it through some paces. Everything from tree trimming to tree felling,(and of course it’s most useful function in opening up packages with more bacon inside) it’s a beast!
At the end of the summer I was taking down an old swingset and didn’t feel like dragging out the sawz-all. The BGBB13 tore through it and I pretty much only had one spot with some edge deformation that was easily put back in place with mostly a butcher steel.
I can’t sing the praises of the BB13 or SR-101 enough.
Have mercy on your wallet now that you have seen the performance
