How often do you replace your bash rings? Mine is looking pretty beat up. It's got so many knicks in it, it's starting to resemble an actual ring. :p Do they weaken much as they get more and more beat up? Mine still seems to be functioning just fine....no serious dents and it's not bent. Just wondering.

I am going on two years now with my Ring God.

As long as it works and isn't bent enough to get in the way. I used a grinder on old Ring God a while back because it had gotten some real sharp parts to it. I smoothed out to sharp bits and it was as good as nearly new.

One of the reasons I switched to the Evil guide was the fact it can't get real sharp.
