whose warranties cover anything and everything that is unintentional? you break it in hard, abusive use and they replace it. I'm not talking about intentionally destroying a knife just to do it.

Does not have that type of warrenty. I broke one of their blades doing exactly the type of work they used to promote their blades and was raked over the coals by Mick and company. In contrast I have used khukuris from Bill much harder, blades from Busse, Swamp rat etc., with no where near that level of attitude. The warrenties are *NOT* the same in practice.Redguy said:Strider

cognitivefun said:The other thing about such a warranty is that it is in a way a Ponzi scheme. In the sense that revenues from new purchases are used to finance past warranty promises made. So what happens if a manufacturer stops selling knives?
I seem to have the same recollection.BurkStar said:Cliff, if I remember right, didn't Strider replace that knife for you?
