Just a fun little sesh with the original TG and the Battle Grade version. Enjoy!
Correct. The steel has nothing to do with the performance in this video. It's the grind and edge geometry on these two knives that make the difference. As I said in the video, the original TG has quite an obtuse edge and it's rather thick just behind the edge. Whilst it's quite sharp, it won't beat a thinner edge in chopping.As Rob mentioned a couple of times in the video, the convex geometry wasn't biting as much. Makes sense. Any obtuse convex edge I have used wanted to bounce more than bite. I don't think the steels really played a role in comparative performance here.
I know, I'm a goose!Rob, be careful mate. You nearly dug a hole straight to China with those inaccurate stabs
