Doug,<br>Thank you for responding back, I see that makes sense now. I have assembled the kit and I did go out and buy the blades. I also tested them to see what they can do. I was amazed at how tough and sharp those blades are, I was able to cut pretty much whatever I wanted. I even made a medium size figure four trap out of dried cotten wood. The blade is still sharp enough to do alot more. I did have to be very careful though. It was easier to carve the trap with the small blade than with my small lock back. Now I can have several small sharp blades as opposed to one small knife that I would have to sharpen soon.
