Moisture will just stay underneath handles scales once its there (sort of represents sitting out in the weather). I figure it would be worse with micarta, than g10. Rust does not effect a blades function either, but most knife makers recommend that you maintain and take care of your blade. Like Justin said, I have complete respect for what Nathan does and his product, I also like steels. The point of this hobby for me is to enjoy, use, and properly care for the blade that takes care of you. I learned a lot, and am glad I asked
Happy Friday!!
I'm not saying don't take care of your knives. What I am referring to is the OCD that I see on the forums. What I find even funnier is that many of these people will never actually use their knives. They just obsess over them.
Yeah, I know, some of you will now post that you use your knives. That's great, but I would guess that many on the forums just collect and never use their knives as intended. They might get scratched. Do you disagree? Just look at all the pictures posted on this forum.*
*There's nothing wrong with that. I'm just trying to make a point. I have read complaints by some knife makers that their knives never get used.
