It's not over until we say it's over.:)

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Study history much?

Ever watch "Animal House?"

Google the phrase sometime.

:crushed:

Thanks Nixel....I was rather stunned...

Wut? They didn't?

Seven years of college down the drain!

I see. I guess my history knowledge is ahead of my Animal House lore! I'll have to watch that movie sometime.

If you haven't seen it you should watch it before you do anything else today!

Too late for that. I've already done a lot today. It is 9:12 PM here on the left coast.

9 PM on Friday night is too late? Seriously?

Yeah I'm just a few hundred miles north of you, Bill1170! :D

I'm hoping I can end this thread by saying I love axes. They work really well.


Yeah, cause all relevant information hasn't been said yet......:rolleyes:


P.s. Guys I couldn't stop rolling on the ground. I fucking love it.
 
Yes, Ontario told me that they would replace it, waiting to get it in the mail. What the issue was based on what I was told by Den Pirrone that the knife had a hair line fracture from what sounded like before I got it. He said it was the first one he had ever scene. I will make a post on it after I get the blade and test it out again
.

Well, I'm glad you are getting a new knife. The "hairline fracture" line is just as much a guess as ours about your methods used to baton the knife. To be honest, I'm glad and was rooting for you to get a new knife but in my opinion there's no doubt you had more to do with knife failure than any hairline fracture. The log was too big, the angle and positioning of the knife were off. You were torqueing the knife as you batoned it too, weren't you? :)

Don't make the same mistake twice is the important thing to take away from this one.

Enjoy your new knife. I like mine very much. It's a well built knife that has it's uses and is made of quality materials. And......yes. I'm a "there's a correct tool for every job" kind of guy. I've never broken a knife or any other tool in over 40 years of use.

I had a really nice kitchen knife do that when I accidently dropped it on the floor. It just went ping and snapped the blade off just like yours did. Sucked it was a good knife up until that happened
 
Some of you are making it a habit of acting like twits in threads like this. This isn't whine and cheese although some of you seem to not care. You'll be given no more warning or chances going forward.
