yes, a kumbaya moment would be nice, but if you think this is the first guy to misuse a blade, think again.

Should RMK, simply to be "good guys", honor a warranty on one of their products for every moron that uses one of their products in a fashion it wasn't designed for, and blatatnly flies in the face of the published user's guide that identifies proper use? All this compounded by the fact he goes on facebook and acts stupid like "What did I do wrong??", This shouldn't happen!", basically creating an avenue for all the armchair metallurgists, machinists, and such (never knew so many existed) to chime in with the "expertise", prior to even contacting the company for advice on how to proceed.

Let me post this a second time:

"Before it leaves our shop, the cutting edge of every Randall Made™ knife is carefully honed by hand, ready to use for its intended purpose. However, the bevel and edge of a knife designed for cutting skin and flesh are much different from those used to hack bone or other hard materials.

Using a fine hunting knife for an axe will naturally damage its cutting edge. And pounding, prying, or throwing a knife not designed for these purposes is likely to damage it."
