Fallkniven F1 - batoning test (cross grain)

This is a test to show if the F1 chips while batoning dry beech wood cross grain.
... and the result: NO CHIPPING
(I would call this usage "hard use" or boarder line abuse)
I am not trying to be effecient in this vid. Its is only for testing the egde toughness. The short piece of wood its not easy to handle while batoning.

I have had this knife for over two years and what is showed in this vid is only a fracture of the batoning the knife as standed up to and it has newer chipped on me.

The VG10 steel is prone to chipping on stone/concrete/rocks as "Noss" (channel name) has showed with the Fallkniven A1. If you do not have to chop concrete you should not have chipping problems. Unless you hit a rock while batoning.

If you watch the destruction test on the Bark River Bravo1 on www.knifetests.com and compare what hapens to the Bravo1 during Noss' test. Then I would guess that the Bravo1 would suffer egde damage if I did this kind of cross grain batoning (in this vid) to the Bravo.

Do you know what kind of wood you went through? As well as how long it's been out in the sun? That's two huge variables after all.

Thank you for contributing !

Its a test of the "edge strength". I am not trying to be effective as the word "test" indicates of the video name.
