Hi. My name is Pete. I am from Canada. (Grohmann country !!)
Question: Is 0-1 steel really a pain in the ass to take care of in the bush? Can it handle a little bit of wet for a while before it stars to rust??
Wondering if I should switch my order to A-2. (Skookum bush tool).

O1 and A2 are both carbon steels and without proper care will rust. If you are using your blade and at least wiping it off after use you should not have any problems, just don't put her away wet and dirty

A-2 should buy you more time, if i remember correctly.
