Maybe you should calm down a little first, my friend. Firstly, I never said they ground all the #14 blades. Second, are not your jingoistic slurs a little unbecoming for a moderator? Or have standards slipped dramatically in my absence?
Adding condescension to jingoism. Why? Are you finding it difficult to answer a simple question without resorting to ad hominem attacks?
Are you seriously claiming that you can detect the origin of a blank by looking at the finished blade? Chapeau! That is a very rare talent, indeed. In fact, I know of no other person capable of this particular trick.
Have fun!

P.S. Hi, Jimmy! I'll ask around. The Dubl Duck story is a long one, and it does involve Puma and Dovo, but that is not saying much, because both "subcontracted" heavily.
