I recently bought a Fallkniven F1 knife for gralloching and general use (after reading several glowing reports on here). It is indeed a superb knife (or at least seemed to be).
However, after only butchering 1 roe carcasse, the blade chipped when I was chopping the legs off a rabbit. I'd not even sharpened it yet! I've chopped the legs off hundreds of rabbits, with all sorts of knives, and never had this happen. Very disappointing.
Does anyone know if this is a general problem with these knives - and how best to fix it?
Or is it likely to be a defect, and would it be worth trying to contact Fallkniven?
Thanks.
