Well, the good thing about a KA-BAR is that even if it's not sharp, you can still beat someone to death with it!  Grin

i scraped off a lot of that outside layer of skin just testing if my mora is sharp, and i didn't notice till i looked at it.  Shocked

for me i found the burr the same way i test if it's sharp- gently stroking my thumb across the blade. the burr side catches, whereas the other side doesn't.

That's true, the burr side catches your finger, but your finger slides smoothly off the non-burr side.
