This weekend at the WASARCONF I was introduced to Swamp Rat knifes. I watch three guys break down a tree with what could only be described at bowie knives on steroids. Prepare for sticker shock. They guys with these things say they run about $400 a knife. They also say that Ka-bars last about 5 min before they snap in half.
Check out this youtube. I probably would not have believed it if I had not watched this kind of thing in person (although the guys I was watching were using much shorter versions).
