Its really very informative and fair comparison, scientific at each point. I have learned a lot, many thanks!
However I would like you to complete your work with prying performance test. Since it is well known that knives exist mostly for prying (some brands at least) without such test your job, although very admirable, looks somewhat incomplete.
It also would be pretty interesting to know how your searched objects hold up in direct confrontation, so-called tactical situation.
Please keep your search!
