@Doomguy666: That makes sense. Another lesson from a wizard with knives. The more you know.
I was thinking high end blades as being carbon fiber, but to me it doesn't make sense if it's too light. The heavier, the more momentum you build in a strike.
@vex714: I got a carbon fiber dagger with a titanium core, and a few neck knives made of carbon fiber or ceramic. knives are better at draw cuts then chopping so weight isn't an issue, you don't hack at food in the kitchen you cut it.
@vex714: of course there's a knife for every job if you want a heavy chopping knife there's chisel knives, machetes, kukris, and competition choppers.
often but not always chopping knives have a blunt tip for additional weight at the end.
