Of all the FACTORY edges I've tested so far, Rex-45 and LC200N has not chipped on me. All others have. I'm not sure why, considering I don't use my knives exceptionally hard. I understand burnt edges are common but Rex-45 holds up well. LC200N was nice but lost its edge quickly after cutting some G10.

Perhaps time to share the "REX 45 vs M4 edge toughness" vid by Shawn / @Deadboxhero once more ... pretty impressive what REX 45 can take..(matches my own much more layman - experience)

Top three going by pocket-time (update October 25):
- EDC: Endela SE (K390). Endela SE (VG10), Manix 2 LW (REX45)
- Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1)
