I've switched to 2 anchors now and am still using the first lead, maybe 25 nights on it and there still isn't any real damage to the amsteel. I usually weigh between 225-235 for reference.
I think I didn't pull the half twist around the anchor tight enough before getting in... Causing the amsteel to cut itself. I will test it out tonight and see if that was the reason
