Buffalobob,
what happened to the SF spirit and art of finer cutting with any object that resembles a knife??????? (just kidding)

If my son breaks the tip or any other part of the knife then he'll have to explain to Mr. Harsey why he would like his blade reground/fixed and that will not be a pleasant experience for him.......
