RC-3 vs. Marble Counter top

So i ended up stabbing my RC-3 full force into the marble counter top, and needless to say, ruined the tip.
I got angry at calculus and stabbed my notebook:o, and the RC-3 went straight through it (not surprisingly), bending the very tip of the RC-3. Nothing snapped, no irreparable damage. After ten minutes with the stone, i had re-profiled the tip a little, and although it isn't as sharp, should hold up just fine. I'm just impressed the tip didn't snap, seeing as there is NO dent in that counter top. Great heat treat I guess. I'm just really pissed at myself, i don't know what i was thinking. Now i have an excuse to buy an RC-3 MIL ;)
 
When you get angry, try some push ups! You could have destroyed your knife and ended up with a usless hand if things went really wrong. Think of how angry you would have been then.
 
If you think calc is bad, wait 'til you get to differential equations! You'd better buy a bigger knife!
 
Glad to hear the book was not in your lap.... & you had a good grip or you'd be doing simple subtraction...minus fingers or flesh from body mass= bloody mess
 
:grumpy: I hate to say it but thats what you get for doing homework, :rolleyes:kids these days.

But in all seriousness now im glad you didn't hurt your self or your RC-3. I also know where your coming from, I curently have a hole in the back of my Trig. book from trying to do home work one day... with a knife. I also have a binder full of staple holes left from a staple gun.
 
Anger management? Once, many years ago, I got so mad at my pc I threw it out my window. Actually, I threw it trough my window. 3rd floor apartment. I hate computers and now I work as a sysadmin....sorry about the knife. I would like to see a picture of the stabbed notebook though :-)

Diif Eq was definitely worse than Calc -- take it from someone who had to take EVERY Calculus and Diff-Eq class twice to pass. Engineering school my ass. . .

If you are going to stab your calculus book (for the record, I never stabbed a book I paid for), put your thumb over the pommel (hopefully it's the RC3 with the modified pommel) to keep your hand from sliding down over the blade. And as mentioned before, never, ever, stab a book in your lap :eek:.
 
I was used my organic chemistry book to teach my roommate how to throw knives. And to let him shoot my crossbow pistol. Lots ot interesting marks in that one now.

But I always liked Calc. O.Chem was the evil one.
 
I'm with you Spooky. Organic Chem was a B!tch. I never took DEQ, but calc was'nt too bad. Those days are in the past, thank the Lord. :D
 
I hate chemistry, but as a twist of fate, I', really good at it. I had a disconcerting ability to look at stochiametric (SP?) equations and balance them in my head. I also kicked ass at aerodynamics and thermodynamics for some reason. Oh well, it's the simple things in life that confound me like why won't my damn boot laces stay tied? :o

Phwew, I'm glad i'm not the only one who does homework with a pen and a fixed blade knife :)

I don't how many times my math teacher has had to take off points from tests and quizes because I use an ink pen. One time I got 95 I was so pumped until I looked at the top and seen that I actually had a 100 but she took 5 points off for using ink, :D It was still a 95 tough.
:confused: Is it just me or do you think if you can do math with a pen you should get bonus points?

oh an for the whole chemistry thing, I don't have to take it where I took JROTC flight and space. :p
