Well, first week of use at work. Cut lots of boxes, opened lots of boxes, stripped lots of heavy copper and aluminum wires #10-250mcm, stripped tons of electrical tape off of things, cut lots of electrical tape, cut open chip bags, opened plastic packaging, etc....daily use as an electrican.
Noticed a few small chips along the edge...probably from hitting steel connectors and copper constantly...still sliced a grape which means it was still very sharp...but after I threw it nervously onto my Lanksy system I found that the angle was about 17* on the belly of the knife and went up to 25* by the tip? Maybe that's why it chipped more? Not sure...will find out this coming week...
Sharpened it to 25* all the way across the edge.
P.S.
Lockup didn't change a mm from the day I opened it, still opens up smooth as butter and locks up tighter than fort knocks.
And to the pics!
Some small scuffs on the titanium handles and clip, blade didn't sustain any scratches. Cleaned up fairly well.
