Yep. Knives don't make very good concrete or metal choppers, but sometimes...

a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

I have rippled the edge of an INFI blade trying to baton it through an elk leg shank, but that was my bad--had thinned it out too much for that kind of work. I've also dug foot/handholds in a cliff side to extricate myself from the head of a blind canyon, which was no big deal in dirt, but some strength of edge would have been needed to do that in rockier material.
