Just out of interest, have any of you had a knife blade break? What was the blade? where did it break (tang, tip, middle)? and what were you doing at the time?

Mora tip - dropped it on concrete. My fault
Leatherman Wave. Serrated blade snapped off by a "friend" - do not open coconuts with a rope knife... pilchard!
Edit: Just remembered I did put a couple of nasty chips on the edge on one of my Fallknivar. Levered off those mollusks that are sucked to the rocks. Not sure if it was the shell or the rock that did it.
I do that all the time, as they make a superb bait on a long line for Plaice and small Hallibut.
We have wooden floors in Sweden. So we do not break the tips on our Moras when we drop them. Also nice to walk on, and hypo allergic.
Your friend needs to get a Machete. Designed to open coconuts with.

So a sharp blow will dislodge them
