is the blade thick enough to not bend so easy?

As I try to bend the sword, it is very difficult to bend. Although I did find a tiny bend at the tip point of the sword. which I bent back to normal, but overall a pretty stable stiff sword. I will be testing it out on a few trees later this summer.

It really doesn't bend unless you force it to, but then it is even hard. But I wouldn't recommend it to hit things really hard like wood because you have to think, the shock vibration can break the sword because it isn't indestructible. But I still recommend it.

Hmm, I did all kinds of cuts, and in hard flooring, I noticed not a bit of deflection. Note, these are premium blades, so even though they are thinner, I believe the central plate is properly hardened and stiff to avoid these issues.

It's pretty thick. The blade is 3/16 inch thick. Feels really solid in the hand. good knife for the price.

no not that flexiable, the silicone blade is but not the handle and holder. you would have to go from side to side on the curve

Yes it is, but it is stiff when you get it. Just work it out as often as you can. It's a nice knife.

Sorry, no. The blade is molded in place. However, it is very hard series 400, medical grade stainless steel, and should last a long time.

Yes, it is thin enough to be cut with simple metal snips and has plenty of bend to it so you can get it into what ever shape you want.

Yes. I'm very happy with the quality. It is not flimsy and won't bend easily.

I think so. The knife is reportedly stronger and holds an edge longer but I have not tried to break it or had a need to sharpen it.

In my opinion it does not flex easily. You do not need a blade to remove it. There is a removable paper backing.

The thickest that I have cut is about an inch and a quarter hardwood, had no problem, I believe you could even thicker if you took your time and not push it real hard and use sharp blades! Hope this helps !!

Hi,Ours is fairly inflexible plastic. It's easy to cut; at no point is the plastic thicker than a few millimeters. We used a hacksaw. We've had ours for years now and it still works and looks as good as the day we bought it. No warping or cracking, and unless you look closely you can't even notice the knife marks on it (you know, when you're not paying attention and you miss the slot and slice or poke into the plastic a bit). Would recommend.

It's not particularly thick but not too Flimsy either. Somewhat flimsy but I Don't think it would bend I've come to Like it.

I have never tried to do that, but it is not very flexible at all, definitely not like a fillet knife. You probably couldn't bend it with your bare hands.

Not sure how to answer that but the blade is very sturdy and not large in any dimension. Its very slim from any dimension

I think it would provided you used a long ( maybe 8 or 9") blade so it would be able to bend. But I'm just a do-it yourself hack if u get my drift.

My unit doesn't bend easily. It is very rigid and has a good handle to grip. I use it a lot, and I've never had an issue.
