Yes we are starting off in Austtralia. Jose Diaz was over here starting us off and he thought the wood was harder than the stuff he was using in the States.

Good stuff fellas, being an Aussie I know that there is an anti-yank theme, but they just seem to come-up-with fun stuff.

Try some local hardwood like mulga if you want to see your edge fold over and chip out.

it is well seasoned pine from bed slats, we thought that 50 year old ironbark fence stainers might be the go - for about 10 seconds LOL

Wow you would really want to be able to trust your knife eh? Would also require a bunch of aim some of those tests. I imagine blade choice would play an important role.

[tow929]

yes and the heat treating is important
