I figured I’d give this chisel knife a try, since it’s not like I use this particular knife for its intended purpose anyway but rather as a general purpose sharpish piece of steel. I’m already carrying a folding knife and a Leatherman, so I don’t need a third knife with a pointy tip.

Edit: 6 months later - I've used the chisel end a ton. Far more useful in my work compared to a regular carpenter's knife.

Congrats on the new knife.

I would totally attempt to revive the old one as well, just for grins. Give that sumbitch a grind on the belt sander and you'll probably be good to go... Albeit with a blade that'll be quite a bit shorter than when it was new!

    The blade is loose inside the handle and wiggles quite a bit. I think this knife's done.
