    Cardboard and Oranges (Tasman Time)

    I was cutting some cardboard boxes up with my SE Tasman Salt, and when I got done, I tested its sharpness on a nearby orange. It needs a touch-up, but it was still certainly sharp enough to take care of that fruit.

    So, as a tribute to the sometimes surprising edge-holding ability of H1, a montage to a great knife, and because I didn't want that lovely looking orange to go into my stomach before I'd photographed it, here are some pictures for your enjoyment.









    Thanks to people like Datan, Spyderdog and Mr. Blonde, I'm getting a little more of a sense of what makes a good photograph, but I still have a ways to go before I become any good.

    Most Blade steels cringe at Orange Cutting - Not H1!

    Thanks for posting these!

    Nice! You do realize, Blackhair, that you are now obligated to do the same with the PE Tasman you won from Agent Starling!
