>>1109460Well, I don't have any reasons to hate stainless, even though it's not as shock resistant as the 5160 steel, I won't be using it to baton, so I think I'll be fine with the Mesa
About the shape and grind of both blades, since they are near Identical, how well should they perform to do everything but batoning in the woods? What can I do to improve the Mesa to perform better?
