Noss D-tests the Skinny ASH1

Guyon, you're the keymaster for all embarrassing hilarity associated with Busse. Thanks for that, brother. Needed a laugh this morning. My one student who shows up super early was wondering what the heck was funny on such a cold (48 degrees...FREEZING in Miami) morning. :D:D:D

I still think the funniest thing about this pic is Cobalt with the 'gar in his mouth...and the windswept hair is just classic. KAAK looks like he's constipated...or REALLY worried about something to his right. Tony just made a dirty double entendre about a female cop. This pic is hilarious.


Didn't poop during the show hours... Had to stay at the trough to score. My effort to secure my... duties (get it?!?) allowed to other hogs two score. :p :D

Re-think Yaz, no cross forum BS

EDIT: It was who I thought it was, move along, nothing to see here........
 
The Skinny ASH is convex, right? But anyway, I would be pretty surprised if removing metal from the blade added lateral strength, and it just so happens that the blade finally broke in the side tang impacts which requires much from the lateral impact toughness of the blade.

I was thinking more along the lines of it negatively impacting the cutting portion of the test, though your point is very reasonable (and something I didn't think of). when you have a thin blade and you do repeated metal impacts to the edge, the edge will become a square rather then a triangle. the thinner the edge, the less resistence the material gives when the now squared knife edge is hammered through it. the wider the squared edge, the more force from the hammer gets put right back into the metal of the knife.

By having the geometry be thicker right behind the cutting edge, you could end up incurring more metal fatigue through the hammer+metal cutting portion of the test.
 
Whether you like it or not, nothing gets the hogs going like a Noss testing.

Fact is... INFI is damn tough stuff! I'd go so far as to call it amazing. There is nothing else quite like it, and that is why we are all here. :thumbup:

Can't we all just get along....:rolleyes:;):D

Maybe you could slit a few throats while you're at it. :cool:
