I am planning a trip to Mars in the spring, will this blade be sufficient to fight off any aliens I may encounter?

This knife will not work for Martians. The stainless steel of this knife will deteriate within seconds after exposure to Martian blood.

It'll work fine. It is really light on the back end making it very heavy on the blade end which could be perfect for cutting off a snakes head.

No, it won't. It slices through most other metals like butter, and the best part is that it comes complete with fully functional Ban-Kai. So you'll have no problems at all with any stray Hollows or Arrancar you might encounter in your day to day life.

That blade is crazy sharp and its overall very sturdy for the price. I can't see it breaking unless you were using it on a tree or something super hard

I suppose you could... The blade is a bit narrower that most other blades but it will certainly give a close cut :)

It's pretty sharp already! But, as long as you're not sharpening it on an electric grinding wheel and overheating it I don't see how you could hurt anything sharpening it. It seems like a very high quality blade.

I am not sure what you are planning to use it for and I haven't used it for anything personally but it does seem to be a well constructed piece and the blade is heavy duty. I hope that helps. If I was in a spot I would use it for sure.

The blade is about .190 inch a little thicker than 3/16 of an inch(.1875"). I'm not sure of the Rockwell hardness, tensile strength or shear strength but I would guess it will withstand a fare amount of prying and chopping force. I have a background in injection molding and tool steels but do not know what alloys or composition this Damascus blade. It does appear very well made.

Im not sure Greg,but for the price i wouldnt doubt it,no less its a pretty good blade.

It is a very nice quality blade. What you would expect from Ontario and a military/naval/diver type knife. If you are worried about scratching the blade, you probably shouldn't own this knife; it is made for WORK! With that being said, it doesn't really mess with the blade finish. Over time, just about any sheath (unless pure fabric or nylon) will scratch blade finish. It is not very sharp out of the box.

I would say yes. Small plane blade would be narrow enough to be run long ways across the strop

Without any reservations. Seems to be an excellent all- purpose blade. I have ripped sapele and maple with good results

I agree with the previous answers. The regular blades have different bends along their length which may affect the aerodynamic lofting of the cut grass. But I doubt that the differences would be significant. Try it. Ripley: I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I'm not forsure but I tested it out when it arravied and it was really sharp and very strong and grips pretty good. I'd definitely recomand this blade.

Yes, but be careful with hitting stuff, because the blade is not good quality.

Yes, as long as you order from Amazon or from an approved seller, it will be a Cold Steel blade. I would personally recommend ordering from Amazon.

From the information that I could find the blade is 2 mm thick. I hope this helps. Thank you American Survival Gear
