you got it 'sharp' from them? or did you sharpen it? I got my 'sharp' from them - which they clearly state the end user will probably want to get it to their own sharpness level - also my sheath does not have the brass chape on the end - which is historically accurate
Yeah I chose sharp when I bought it. When I got the knife the edge was pretty good. I went over it with my stones just to get it sharper. The knife is so thick behind the edge if I tried to cut paper, it would still do a poor job of it even though it was relatively sharp after I was done with it. This isn’t bad for a thrusting weapon so I’m planning on keeping the edge the same. That’s a shame, the brass chape actually looks pretty nice.
Keep in mind that Todd doesn't make the Cutler line himself they're made in India Todd's handmade blades are probably much better than this but they cost thousands of dollars.
Good video. Was interesting to see how it would perform. Just watched your overview video on this.
Thank you, it did well. Felt really nice mostly.
a single edge thrust oriented design
Yep, and it does it very well.

steel is EN45, and I think Tod trys for 55-58 rc (maybe, I could just be thinking wrong about it)
Ok, nice. Thank you for adding this.
