So, just bored and wandering the internet and daydreaming about all the blades I would love to have, and I started wondering about a simple PSK.
It looks like the standard thickness for one is 1/8th...have you ever done one in 3/16s? How well would one cut at 3/16th's? That is to say how much cutting ability is one giving up considering the blade is 1 inch wide. Can the 1/8th handle some decent batonning?
I'm guessing the 3/16th's is overkill considering this is kind of considered a last ditch knife anyway and one would hardly expect it to be optimal for everything you might need.
Anyway, just curious and I saw the forum was slow so thought I would ask.
