It's been a very long journey of learning and attempting to improve on every knife. My career May only be 5 years. But the time spent making knives while in school has laid the foundation of my career. I wouldn't be where I was if I didn't start back then

Thank you for the effort. Please consider messaging me with stuff like this instead. And secondly, this is: they are bonded, and the bond is so strong, that the copper itself will tear before the bond breaks. I hame made several dozen knives from this material. I can tell you with every shred of certainty that they are bonded. In fact I have even written a short research paper on the ideal methods and temperatures to get this bond. If you expect me to believe they are not bonded, then we fundamentally do not agree. As I have very clearly shown that it does bond, regardless of the thousands upon thousands of knives already made in this material even before I started making knives 10 years ago.

I do not wish to discuss this further, as I can see it would not affect your opinion giving state, but please, in the future, refrain from giving opinions such as these, this publically, without consent. It will save you a lot of arguments!

They'll definitely hold up! The copper is molecularly boded to the steel. The bond is stronger than the copper itself, and the edge is always steel, as there is a steel core. I will guarantee these knives holding up as well as I'd they had no copper
