I've been working my way through the Aliens series while I test. Not so bad

I was wondering what your distraction was. It would be very tedious otherwise.

Killer stuff V... the worse part of cutting all the okra was the darn wasp I PO'd and it was doing its best at getting me lol...

That attack didn't end so well for the wasp, few minutes later I knocked it to the ground and ended that little monster. I am not a fan of those, that leave them alone, they won't bother you has always had me bite by those little monsters lol...

tried to wrap up this edge holding test tonight after having a busy week.

cut for an hour. this pile is three feet high, four feet wide in either direction.



still going strong.

I will measure all the cardboard eventually to get the total in miles / feet.

It's going to take a few more orders worth of cardboard at my restaurant before I can complete the test. I keep running out.

At this point I think it's safe to say magnamax matches or exceeds the edge retention of anything else I've used. K390, Rex45, M4, ZDP189, etc.

This puts it at 9 garbage bags of cardboard strips cut, and it's just now barely starting to get hung up every so often. I expect to get to around 15 bags before the edge is sufficiently dulled to stop this test.

Did not expect this much work, to say the least!
