Rick, I know both of your brothers and would have thought more of either of them than to abuse a working tool with such reckless abandon. I would have figured that they would have taken better care of their possessions for one, and been proactive and smart enough to request a re-blade long before now. They should have gotten on your re-blade list before you stopped taking new orders a year or two ago. They're up the creek now aren't they? (unless they grant you good access to good hunting) LOL. I hope they learn a lesson from using poor judgment! BTW, how's my 2006 order coming?
