I am on a kick after having notched my Trailmaster on a hidden rock while clearing some brush on a hillside.It is not a bad notch but it's a pain to have to reprofile that part of the edge.I have thought that there might be a few of different ways to go
one of those would be opting for a knife with "stronger"material and better heat treatment and another would be to try a different edge type(saber vs flat ground).I enjoy the Busse concept but worry about a traditional Flat Grind on anything but a kitchen or pocket knife.Is the asymetrical edge a split between the two?Is it similar to what I had on my Emerson Specwar(but not that brittle stainless crap)I would be curious to see an example of a more utility biased Busse knife with this INFI steel that I have heard so much about.Something with excellent cross cut saw teeth on the spine like the Spetznaz machete and a saber ground blade(if it's needed to avoid severe notching,I don't know)Just a thought.Let me know what your thought are on this I'd like to hear the straight truth from some Busse knife owners.
Thanks
