'''Notch Hardness (Strike) Test'''<br>

{{Pin-Tile |Image= [[File:MaA Strike Test.JPG |Title= Shield Fronts thumb|left|Width-Img =300px |Height-Text=60px |By = |Caption = }}The Strike Test]]

When the edge of a blade is struck with reasonable force by the edge of another blade of known and approved properties, the edge of the struck blade should not show excessive burring or chipping. On inspection of any notch produced in the struck blade, the depth of the notch should not exceed more than half of the width of the notch (see fig below).<br>

These tests will not normally be carried out at regular kit checks but are provided merely as a guide. Obviously, they may be carried out by the MaA or one of his appointed deputies on any weapon believed to be of suspicious construction.<br>
