Hard use is a buzzy term that means something different to everyone. In my mind so long as you are using it as a cutting tool, just about any Spyderco could be used hard. They are all quality tools, and I have never worried about one of mine failing me in proper, light or hard use. Jim has done some destruction test, and works his knives. I would say his criteria would be a little higher to get this knife labeled hard use. He will be the first to tell you to use it and not worry about lock failure or edge damage. His testing procedures puts knives through more work than most knives see in years. Cutting 5/8 rope and wood IMO opinion is hard use.
With all that being said, I think this knife will be awesome in the kitchen. I won't be using it like say my Tuff, Cruwear Manix, or some other knives with a steel that is generally regarded as tougher.
