I did some chopping, trying to split logs with the bk20 similar to how you would with an axe. Let me first say i was very impressed with the knife itself! Split most pieces with 1 chop.
Look at the penetration! :0
That particular piece took 3 chops.
Once i split the pieces i chopped at them for about 60 swings total.
I didnt get to use it for as long as i'd like, or take as many photos. The handle actually felt better the longer i used it. The sweat from my hands made it feel similar to micarta.
I need to use it for longer to be certain, but so far i am very pleased.
And yes, i know this isnt what the knife was designed for and axes are used for splitting. I was just having some fun.

Nice man. The 20 is a freaking sick blade. I love it.
