I know that you guys are waiting for the final results of my testing, so I'm posting this important update. TWO DIMES IS TOO MUCH WEIGHT!! Blade failure occured when a miss hit a chair leg. I'm backing off to one dime. I know what you're thinking: it will throw off the balance, but I think a sidearm delivery will solve that issue. Does anyone know of a convex grind model that I can try? Normally I'm a big fan of the flat grind, but for this application a little more "meat" in the blade might help. I did notice a little bit of meat ON the blade.....
