RS rope cutting video
on: January 18, 2008, 04:58:04 PM
A member contacted me asking if I would take a video of my Swisstool RS cutting some rope with the curved serrated belt cutter blade . The thick yellow rope was nylon and very hard to cut and I thought the RS dealt with it very well .It wasnt that easy as I had my arms around the camera and trying to keep the blade and rope infront of the camera , so if it looks a little awkward thats because it was  :D  Ideally if the rope was tied to something and tight it was have cut much easier .

I like how every cut goes off camera... are you switching to some previously cut rope?   :pok:

Leave the dents as they are- let your belongings show their scars as proudly as you do yours.

Nice vid Dunc. I tested my RS out when I got it on some rope and it really does glide through them with very little effort. I haven't had a go at sharpening the rescue blade as it has seen very little use but if I remember correctly, Dunc said it can be done on the Sharpmaker I believe.

Yes the Sharpmaker is spot on to Vics angles so no need to  re-profile . Just a few strokes and its like new again .

We clearly don't have a life when we are getting all hot and bothered over a video of a rope being cut.  :D

Nice video Dunc, but we demand more....next time we want to hear you narrating the thing.  (y'know, so we can tell if you are a real person or just a collection of computer-generate images designed to mess with our minds) :D
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

I thought about narrating it but I'd probably mess it up , plus I'm shy  ;)
