Cliff, FLAT GROUND!! I SAID NO FLAT GRINDS!!
Besides it was 0.25 inch test by Chiro. By the way, what kind of name is Chiro anyway. I think that name should be banned also. It sounds to much like cheerfull or cheers. We can't have that Chiro. So your new name is Churro.

Cobalt, in my woodcarving and in Life, I try never to use abrasives. I like to cut everything. Don't YOU?
Paracelsus, putting up lead shielding around my monitor. I'm glad that Bladeforums has not yet been declared a Nuclear Free Zone. Meltdowns have been known to happen, but so far, thermonuclear detonation is comparitively rare. Although this and another thread do seem to be some sort of chain reaction. Hope nobody else breaks anything while doing nothing. It is very dangerous.

(Addressing the chair...)
Cobalt, and my esteemed colleagues, I have a problem with calling it "Democratic", as the accustomed definition of "Democrat" discriminates against conservatives and Republicans.
I would suggest these following recommendations:
The party should actually be defined as "Unified", "Reformed" or "All-Mighty and Inclusive"
440C with a hardness of no greater than 57C should be deemed a suitable and acceptable material and hardness.
1/8" thickness of material could be acceptable as long as the actual width of the blade does not exceed .875". Should the width of a blade made from 1/8" stock exceed that .875" dimension, then the only acceptable construction should be hidden tang with 90 degree angles and no radii at the tang/blade junction. We cannot have a knife that is too strong.
These recommendations humbly submitted to the party chair, Specification Committee, and the Department of Redundancy Department. All offers null and void in PA and RI, no purchase necessary to win, all contestants must be over 18, demonstration performed on a closed course by a professional driver, no animals were harmed in the writing of this post, no sales tax if sold outside New Mexico.

Does this mean I can't pry open gerbils with my CTII's big thick blade?

No! No prying! That's the new rules.
Use of a suitable prybar is required, or a rusty old screwdriver with part of the handle chipped off (from hitting it with a hammer while using it as a chisel) and the corners of the tip sufficiently rounded.
Um, what part of the gerbil are you prying upon? Sound like a Richard Gere thing...

All posts are amended to original constitution of the DK party. So let it be written, so let it be done.
Cliff will test all knives. If the knives fail, they will be considered to have passed the test and made legal. If the knives don't break, then they fail the test and must be destroyed. The owner of the knife will then be jailed pending a hearing to determine culpability in the matter.

Damn Cobalt, guess I'll have to close up shop, I thought people wanted a knife that could "Take It". I'll go spank myself now!
